  1. Okay so this is the control unit? And inside this there will be a relay, that i need to replace?
  2. I think I know that type if clicking noise you are talking about. I hear a clicking noise when I depress my dads xc70 clutch pedal in order to start it. Do you mean that a functioning relay would me the same sort of noise? So far I haven't heard any clicking noises if I push it down or use the intermittent option. But I will try it again with the engine switched off. "The necessary coding to change the whole control unit is quite quick and easy, if you have, or can borrow VCDS. Read coding of existing unit, remove from car, fit identical part number replacement (e.g. 2nd hand) then code new unit to match old one. If you have the skills to remove the old relay, and solder a new one in, that will be the cheapest solution." I think this might be the solution problem is I do not have access to VCDS nor do I have the soldering skills. Do you have an image of the whole control unit with the relay in place. That would be so helpful.
  3. According to Skoda they told me that if the relay would be bad i wouldnt get any current at all in the plug for the wipermotor. And i am quite sure i did. Could you link the realy to me, maybe also show me where its located.
  4. Is this unit responsible for other stuff in the car? Do you know where it is located in the car?
  5. Front windshield wipers doesn't work no matter how much I use the wiper stalk. So I've done some troubleshooting. I started with controlling the fuse for the front windshield wiper i found out that it was still operating. A 20 amps fuse. I've heard that in the Fabia mk I there were two fuses for the windshield wiper. Does anyone know if this is the case for the second generation as well? Further troubleshooting I started by removing the centre stalk unit, the levers behind the steering wheel that are used to flash highbeam and wipe the front and rear window. Tested with two other centre stalk units, one from 2008 and the other from 2011 with exact article number matching my car. Same result, I can still flash indicate and use the wiper blade to the rear window. It is still possible to press the trip button on the wiper lever to change from fuel consumption, range and so on. That also worked with the 2008/2011 centre stalk. Then I removed the wiper arms and wiper motor. Tested with two other motors from the exact same model as my car. There was no difference either. Checked the wiper linkage, and they had not been rusted or affected by verdigris. I measured the plug to the wiper motor, and it showed current from time to time. What I can remember. No reaction in current when I pressed the lever, like crazy. My conclusion is either that it is the relay. But according to those at Skoda, they claim that then I wouldn't been able to see any flow of current at all in the plug/connector to the wiper motor. In case of a bad relay. Alternatively, the control unit where the relay is located that does not function. As this seems like the most logical thing, I still hesitate. Because then the car should have several problems, and it does not. Due to the faulty control unit. But replacing this is expensive and also in need of programming, immobilizer etc. Good to know is that the previous owner has placed several fuses incorrectly. For example, a 20 ampere, where in the instructions manual it should be a 15 ampere. Could this have something to do with the problems i am having? Everything in the car goes as it should what I have noticed. It has been debugged and no error codes. Please excuse my english I am Swedish.
