Rear wiper not working (Disco)

Yes, all doors closed (and the interior lights all come on and off as expected so I assume no problem with switches).
New motor required then :roll:

When mine packed up I took it off, stipped it down, cleaned everything up and it has been fine ever since. You should try this before you assume you need a new one.

--- Quote from: "muddyjames" ---coz it came from the rangie system. the wash only works when the door is closed too. if the rangie split door is open and there is someone stood behind and the driver pushes the washer then the poor person by the boot gets a face full of water.
thats how i believe it to have come from anyway

It's not because it specifically came from the Range Rover, but it is a result of the same problem. The washer jet is mounted on the rear passenger side pillar and if it were activated with the door open it would spray inside the vehicle.
SnakeLogic:
I was just playing around with mine the other day while driving home in the rain. It seems that the frequency of wipes is linked with the setting for the front wipers. Clever guys, those Land Rover engineers.
muddyjames:
I have never looked into that before. I will need to have a play now!!

Never noticed the rear wiper speed change on my old TDi but it certainly changes the frequency on the TD5 when you vary the rotary switch.
