306 Windscreen Wipers - Wont Self Park

Apr 02, 2007 6 Replies

Hi,



Usual problem - Wipers won't self park. Took motor apart - bit of water inside - but essentially all OK. There are 2 copper contacts attached to the gear housing on the motor - cleaned these up - still no joy.



Haynes manual shows diagram with 1 x electronic 8-pin relay - however, mine seems to have 2 standard 5 pin relays under the dash (+ it has a rain sensor on the window which Haynes doesn't show).



Anyone got a clue as to the wiring of the wiper circuit using 2 relays ?



Cheers, Tim.


I can try to email you a wiring diagram if you like, but it may not be specific to your car. I would need a few more details. However this one may do. It shows two 5 pin relays and the rain sensor.

Hi Nigel,

Great stuff - yes please, if you could Email your diagram voer I'd be very grateful.
