The time between wipes depends on how often you belt the stalk downwards!
I think it's called audience parcipitation. :roll:

Was it doing something before you 'belted' it? :lol: The downwards operation is for single wipe. Intermittent wipe wasn't used on 90's and 110's. Might be on later Defenders, but I'm not sure.

I have recently lost 'park' and intermittent from my Td5's wipers, am I right in thinking the relay would be to blame? Would changing this be the first thing to do?

Thanks
Adam
