Wonder if the tailgate doesn't 'know' it's closed? Like a 38...
It's a worm gear so you can't move it by hand. It has current sensing so it turns off if it draws too much. If you're quick you can turn the ignition off and on then leg it to the back and help it along before the motor stops again.
I probably need to take it to bits and fix it properly
Then after the third attempt replace it
It makes no sense. Just went out to the car to try what you said.. rear wiper did a normal wipe cycle and parked itself. Without intervention.Then after the third attempt replace it
Then the front wipers did a single wipe and parked. The stalk was in the off position, not auto/intermittent
The rear wiper will just be finishing off it's sweep. There's a sensor and a magnet so it knows it's not parked. The motor armature sits in a bush rather than a bearing and can get a bit rusty and start to sieze and draw too much current. Mine did exactly the same thing before it eventually gave up.
I'd driven around with it in the down position and it had no intention of trying to move.. then i turn the ignition on and it does the usual 3 wipes as though i'd sprayed the screen wash, but I'd not touched the stalk
If the rubber O ring has gone it may be full of screen wash.I'd driven around with it in the down position and it had no intention of trying to move.. then i turn the ignition on and it does the usual 3 wipes as though i'd sprayed the screen wash, but I'd not touched the stalk

Am i now supposed to tick the box on other quotes to say I've had insurance refused?
I wouldn't but it may not be the correct way to do it... It's so hard nowadays to actually talk to someoneAm i now supposed to tick the box on other quotes to say I've had insurance refused?
