First timer

Post by Joesilavwe »

Hi guys. Am joe from Zambia joining the forum for the first time. My interest is because I own a toyota hilux 2008 (1KD engine) for about a year now! Have had no issues until I realized my wipers ain't working anymore. I read similar problems and will try and check the fuse incase it's blown. Chao for now!

Welcome Joseph! :thumbup:

Check the fuses as you said, but also oil the wiper shaft bushes. They can become very stiff from corrosion and dirt, which causes too much friction / drag for the motor to handle. :winkx:
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
