Hello all my wipers do around 6 wipes on auto and then park wherever they want. This also applies if I just clear the screen they do not return to the park position. The wipers function perfectly on all other modes.

Is this the motor relay or rain sensor has anyone had this before.

Cheers.

I've never had this personally, but I'm pretty sure from memory when others have experienced similar issues to this, the wiper motor itself was at fault.

Motor.

Highly likely that the scuttle drain hole is blocked and the motor has been sitting in a pool of water.

    Did you sort this Dave?

    I have the same issue whereby if I put on auto they just stop mid screen (sometimes they stop in the right place but not often)... Also as you say if I use the manual one sweep then as soon as I let go of the stick - the wipers stop so I have to hold it in the whole way.

    The middle option works fine but again on the fastest setting this does about 5 sweeps then stops...
