    Hi,
    My wipers work in all modes/speeds, however the intermittent wipe is NOT intermittent anymore i.e. it simply goes at the slower of the two speeds rather than an intermittent wipe.

    I assume this is related to a relay fault. So I have located the relays behind the small cubby under the light switch but cannot find a diagram or details of which relay it is anywhere.

    Anyone point me in the right direction ?

    Thanks in advance - Pete 2011 1.6 tdi

    Good luck looking for a wiper relay, there isn’t one... The motor is controlled by a digital LIN BUS command from the Central Electrics, AKA body control module. The common fault is the column switch and a fault code scan of the steering column controller (yes another separate ECU) usually shows the switch is faulty.

    Thanks Crasher - saved me a lot of wasted time.
