2001 Raider wiper suddenly not working anymore

Post by davauc »

Hello guys,
Who can assist? My wipers stopped working. I already checked the fuse. I see there is a circuit breaker on the diagram. Does anyone know where the circuit breaker is? I would like to check it.

Don't know about a circuit breaker but have you checked to see if there is any juice getting though to the motor?

Another possibility is that the stalk switch is faulty.

Something else to check is that the wipers themselves are free - that is that they have not become stuck fast because of corrosion in the bushings. This can happen if they have gone some time without use. Spray a little DW40 on the bushes / shafts (at the base of the wipers).

Hope you find the problem and that it's something small. :winkx:
