Frikkin' wipers

damn, my wipers won't work! It never bothered me but last couple of days it rained here pretty bad, so I decided to fix my wipers but I just coudln't do it!!! Damn! Wiper motor is good, the whole swith is good. I don't see any loose wires or anything weird... Do you guys know where the problem can be?



***Also my logicon seems fukked up and clock is swithing from high to low light setting randomly, radio resets sometimes too, but thats different story. Those wipers bother me more!***

Bust out the CPU and open her up and look for bad solder joints. Remove the old solder, and use a solder iron and carefull re-solder the bad joints.

I found that my key doesnt rotate all the way back to the "ON" position after starting the car.

My wipers werent working ( nor my sunroof ) and I discovered that the key not being fully in the "ON" position was stopping them from working.


Dunno if thats your problem, but it was for me.
