Strange Electrical problem

Featured Replies

Set off this morning to work, car stated -5 outside.

Front wipers working normally, then about 1/2 the way into my journey i decided to clear the spray on my front windscreen, the front wipers don't come on when i try and put water on the front screen, but infact when i pull the lever towards me, the rear wiper comes on instead. And now i can't get the front wipers to work at all.

Just to recap, the front wipers don't work at all and the rear wiper comes on when i try and put water on the front screen. The rear wiper works as normal. Any ideas??

Could this have anything to do with the cold as my car was sat in -7 all night then -5 the whole journey to work. Bit strange how it only started to happen in the harsh cold.

Check fuses F15 F32 F41 (All 10 Amp)

Lift up wipers before getting into car to make sure not stuck to screen. Lots of de-icer in bottle.
