It just will not switch of or reset. Is it just that the second hand one I got is knackered too or is there some kind of relay fault.

Anyone got any Ideas.

Just a guess but I know the pugs rear wiper had a knack of buggering up and it was the earths on the rear window heater. If one side went then it wouod not work and if the other side went it would not return, or something like that.

Does it have some sort of separate control box ? I've never found one yet.

if it aint switching of sounds more like a relay or switch fault, is it the front or rear wiper I had to swap wiring around for the rear wiper after fitting a new tailgate, the uk models seem to be wired up differently to the japs and my wipers wouldnt return to the correct park position

Sounds like another faulty unit to me mark. There is a wiper amplifier unit, behind the fusible links on the drivers side inner wing, near the stock boost sender ;) Did the new unit work at first?

Yep Andy it worked fine and the 2 weeks later it just went nuts. Started rainning on way home so I stuck the 20amp fuse back in and its working fine again. So the amplifier unit sounds like the culprit.

OH boll*cks what a pain in the ass job.

also Andy I'm going to have to hang on an other week with my engines for you as Leon needs one next week to jig up some fabrication work for Mr kirby. So it going to have to be week after next up to you.

Ok Mark no probs. I have a spare amp if you need one anyway :) If you want to fetch the old wiper motor down I'll have a quick look at it for you :)

Wipers coming on and off at will (front).Have bought new wiper motor (ยฃ280) & New switch on column (ยฃ85), dont want to spend any more hard earned without more information. Coincidentally Headlamp washers dont work but pressing switch sends wipers berserk. Someone suggested time control unit, dont even know where it is !

did you sort yours out ? help please........stu

There is a brownish coloured box beside the brake master cylinder IIRC - this is the wiper amp. Try replacing that with a known good one. Why oh why did you spend that much money on new parts? ยฃ20 subscription on here would have seen you with a decent s/h unit for ~ยฃ70 ;)

Wot he said. LOL :slap:

a "wanted ad on here would have produced BOTH ITEMs for ยฃ70.

Or just one phone call to AndyZ or David at Ricerocket and you would have had them delivered in a couple of days.

Unbelievable! :eek:

Still in shock at the new price - I know Nissan can be OTT at times but thats outrageous :eek:
