mark247 39 Report post Posted January 18, 2011 I've got this facelift e30 and it has an intermittent fault. Basically, sometimes the wipers and washers just randomly turn on and the only way to stop them is the pull the relay out or turn the car off. I've had teh car for a few weeks and this has happened twice. Last time it managed to fix itself for a week, but it's just come back today. I've replaced the wiper stalk and the relay and I still have the same problem. Does anyone know what it could be? I'm guessing wiring, but I'm confused as both the washers and the wipers are stuck on. They seem to be stuck on the middle speed. If i pull the low speed wire out of the relay it enables me to use the wipers on only full. This is a temporary fix for now. Also I've just unplugged the washer jets. Anyone have any idea what wires I should be testing or what I should be looking for? Cheers in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This just causes them to be stuck on again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
