Wiper fault

Postby leemala2011 on Tue Aug 21, 2012 11:48 am

Hi guys I have a 93 316i.I was using it recently in the rain and noticed that the wipers have no speed two and only work on intermittent speed on speeds 1 and 2.Has anyone ever come across this before and if so what did you do to sort it many thanks Lee

Do you know anybody else with an E36? If you do, swapping the wiper relay/module would be the best place to start testing.
The actual switch would be next place to check.

Yes, behind the glovebox. It's usually black or white body with a blue plug.
