Intermittent Wiper switch not working

[John S]

On my diesel Maestro the intermittent wiper is no longer functioning. What needs replacing therefore and at how much cost from Rover?

Thanks in advance,

Take the steering column cowling off and see if there is a wire 'flapping about' which should be connected to a terminal - I think this is the most likely cause. Search the forum for previous posts on the subject - I think I've posted once about the headlight switch and once about the intermittent wiper switch with the same essential problem.

Hope this helps.

Will do. Thanks for the speedy response. :)

and if it's not a loose wire it's probably the Wiper control unit which is either behind the fuseboard on early cars or behind the panel in the roof of the glovebox on later cars. I have a spare if it's that...
