Rear Windscreen Wiper Moter

Roving Shaz · 18th September 2020, 11:17

Good morning
The rear windscreen wiper on our 2003 75 Estate Connisseur isn't working
Please could someone tell us what the problem could be

possibilities :- blown fuse, broken wire, duff motor, seized, faulty wiper stalk.

I’d go with a seized shaft (the bit that passes through the window) open the glass and see if you can move the quote arm easily by hand.

Ditto the above, daughter's wasn't working the shaft was seized but it took a while to realise that it's spring loaded and should move out more to engage with the drive.

the shaft is spring loaded it could be stuck in therefor not connecting with the wiper arm WD fixes that

Sounds like a broken wire in the boot harness then, you can put 12v to the actuator once you have stripped the plastics off the inside of the hatch.
