Rear wiper not working (Disco)

(1/4) > >>

JumboBeef:
Simple question!

The rear wiper is not working on my Disco.  Fuse is OK.  I assume the motor has had it........?

Cheers.

simondarby:
Make sure the drivers door is shut or the wiper won't work...

Darren:
Assuming you are trying it with the door shut, there are details here about how to replace the motor. They do tend to seize up - without blowing the fuse, strangely :?

hodgei:
Given that the rear wiper will only work with the door shut, have you checked the micro-switch on the door ?

The wiper on mine doesn't work either, and I haven't had the chance to look at it yet, so I'd be interested in what you find out...

mac:
I`ve had to change the wiper motor on both my old 95 TDi and current 2001 TD5 because they seized up - took the last one apart to try and free it but well and truly jammed up. I smeared some silicon grease on the spindle of the new one to try and stop the water running into it.
