Hi guys,

After reading the forums i decided that my wipers had ceased to function because the wiper motor had gone. After spending far too much money buying a new motor i rush home to install it. Everything goes back together fine until i go to try the wipers. Same problem really slow and juddering. So i slack off the nut holding the wiper arms and just for the hell of it give it another go and hey presto they are fine. So the tip is if you put your wipers back together don't lean on the nut holding the arm on cos it doesn't let them work properly. now i'm wondering if the motor really is busted or did i just tightened the nuts too hard after a sub installation job last week!?!:confused::confused:

How much was the wiper motor?, at least you have a spare or put it up for sale on here. :)

I think curiosity will get the better of me and i will end up re-fitting the old motor iver the weekend just to see! The new motor was a massive £84 from euro car parts. GSF only listed the five pin plug one that fits the golf. This of course was half the price of the one i needed just my luck!!!:shrug:
