Sometimes thereīs another thing too: The contact of the wiper switch (pull) is corroded. The windscreeen wipers are moving, cause they are operated by an "amplified triggered" relay but the fluid pump is directly connected by the switch. So it needs some [mV] to operate the wipers but the current canīt be drawn over the switch for the pump! Check that too! - Good luck, RCS! - Jeff Trent wrote: > I am perplexed.
