Hi guys,
Started having intermittent problems with my windscreen wipers starting up for no reason (dry weather)


I do have a raineX treatment on windscreen

Any clues?
 
I assume you mean on the auto setting?
Condensation on windscreen in area of sensor, or a faulty sensor?
 
psychic yeah could be....

Didn't know I had an auto setting,how,what where?

All I know is im driving along on a sunny day and "PRESTO !!!" Wipers come on.
 
On mine, knock the wiper arm up one for auto, another notch for slow continuous and once more for fast continuous.

Neat trick on a sunny day, but thats not annoying at all :evil:
 
Auto setting is one click up from 'off' on the wiper stalk.
The sensor is in the housing behind the rear view mirror.
I assumed all Zeds had them but could be wrong - there will be a small 'window' in the center when looking from outside
 
More likely grease in the motor where it should not be. There is a how to on here on fixing the issue.
 
Ok situation is worse now (excorsism failed)

Tried all the setting I have but still they come on.

Im gonna be selling it soon,but for now.......

is there a way to de-activate the sensor without going to a dealer ,remove a fuse,or something as a temporary fix,until I can get to a dealer?

Thanks as always guys.
