wiper swipe/return noise.

[ajayp]

Noticed last night the wipers are making an absolute racket!
Very loud annoying sound during swiping and return.
The best way I can explain it is to imagine the indicator sound but at double or even triple volume.

Took a short video, but the quality is not that good.

It may not sound loud here but it def is an making me wanna

Surely this can't be right?

Can't view the video but if its the blades making the noise rather than the arms, then all you need to do is either replace the blades or clean the blades and screen with something that cuts through grease.

I did mine yesterday with a spot of washing up liquid, just a spot is enough to clean the blades and screen of any grease, sorts out smearing, ghosting and noise.

That's strange I tested it from another PC and the video displayed. What error you getting?

The sound is more a mechanical "clicking" noise like a loud relay switching type and it's inside the car -

A few weeks ago I had a similar annoying relay switch sound issue on mine. It seemed to disappear after a few days by itself.

If you search for relay switch on the forum I think there are a couple of links which may be of interest.
