Hi Guys

A common fault it seems ..... but what causes it and how do I sort it?

One suggestion I've found is to clean the contacts on the wiper relay
........ can someone tell me where to locate the relay?

Any suggestions gratefully received

Thanks

Paul

Hi Paul,
Are you sure it is not the linkage worn or in need of lubrication, I
had the same fault on my old 146 but after oiling the linkage & spindle
it worked ok for a few months. I suppose the new owner would have to
replace the linkage eventually.
Hope this is of some help to you.
