Wiper issue's

[300TDi Disco]

Hi guys & gals, On my disco i have found a fault with the front wipers. If I hit the stalk down it moves the wipers but when i let go it stops. ie the wipers can stay in the middle of the sweep. I am just after some advise to find out how to clear this fault. Would i be right in a dodgy relay??

any help would be appreciated.

Regards.

Self park, or lack of it.  Could be dodgy switch or motor which has the self park mechanism.

Hi, if i put the wiper on continuously they work fantastic but it's just inter-mittant is when i have the problem.

I used to have similar issues, swapped the motor in the end which cured it.

Ive got this job to do on the Td5 too exactly the same fault

Ive got the Wiper Mech and Motor in the shed ready to start

how hard was it Chris looks like you undo the bolts on the wiper arms and ping em off but does the black plastic strip just lift off after??
