Normal intermittent? Mine doesn't have normal intermittent - the gap between the wipes varies depending how hard it's raining.(Mine could be broken though!) |

I'd suggest a broken sensor or wire or the sensor isn't seated right on the window. My car was working on slow intermittent until I changed the sensor. Rain sensing is really good! ________________________________________ Ex SC-6Now in a Megane R26 |
