Could someone help me.

I want to disable the delayed wipe after washing the windscreen. It's a very annoying feature especially now when they're salting the roads heavily here in Finland.

I tried to find the instructions from Ross-tech's site and from here, but all I could find were instructions for Fabia.

My OctaviaII is MY05 and I have access to CAN-capable VAG-COM.

Thanks for your help.

VAG-COM > Select > 09 - Central Electronics > Coding - 07

Now select the Wiper Subsystem (usually numbered "1" in the dialog and subtract 2048 from it's current coding.

Thank you. I'll try today. Does it matter which version of the controller I have?

Yes and no. Yes, there were some very early ones in 2003/2004 which were different. No, those were never installed in the Octavia but rather in the Touran.

Theresias, thank you. You're advice worked like a charm. No more delayed wipe. Now I can enjoy nice and clean glass without the smearing last wipe.

Thanks again.
