    Hello guys,

    I am hoping someone will be able to help me with my issue!

    my rear wiper motor has recently packed in, so I have decided to remove it and put I bung in its place.
    i really like how it now looks! Buttttttt........ The hose that provided my rear wiper is dripping water into my boot!
    Since I made this change I haven't once touched the 'Squirter'

    does anyone know if I can do something as simple as remove a fuse that will kill the power to this water line?

    Or or can I just seal the end of it with some silicone?

    Any my ideas would be greatly appreciated as the last thing I wasn't to happen is the water to short out all my wires in my boot!!

    Many thanks

    I have just checked the audi manual, it says that the windscreen wiper water pump motor is on the same fuse for both the front and rear! Is it actually the same motor that sends it to both ends? If not can I simply disconnect the motor for the rear?

    Why don't you just install a new motor and save this hassle?
