Intermittent wiper relay

Farmie · Feb 14, 2018

Looked on eBay and the Bosch ones are £40, this was £16 delivered, anybody else using these programmable 3-30 second intermittent wiper relays.

I'm using a VW equivalent in my Fender. Works a treat, highly reccomended. Think it was from a thread on LZ from a few years back.

I've fancied trying one of these but thought £40 was a bit steep... does this one reduce the endless wiping after a screen wash burst?

How do you adjust the sweep timing.

Flick on... off... wait for your desired interval and flick back on to intermittent... I think that's how they work.

Thanks Gribbin.

I fitted one, paid about €8 from a breakers. Straight swap. As Gribbin said, flick it on then off. Wait 'till the screen is 'wet' again then flick it on. It will remember that interval and continue at that. I get three sweeps with the screen wash. Highly recommended 'mod'.....

Old one in the bag.....

I fitted mine today, worked a treat, now to upgrade the washers some how.

Is it these that are a pain to get at? Easy to fit but have to take half the dash out?
My intermittent doesn’t work at all and the wiper just stops where ever it wants! Will this sort the stop position as well??

I’ve no idea Chris, my 300TDI SW the relay is in the fuse department, I had to undo the metal bar that you find after taking off the plastic fuse cover, what a game changer, I was out yesterday with her and it was so satisfying to have an intermittent wiper exactly the right timed sweep for the weather I was encountering, best £16 I’ve spent this year, the bonus was pressing the washers and the wipers do 3 sweeps

Just ordered one off ebay for a tenner. I saw the original post a few yrs back but couldn't justify 40 quid
