Small wiper problem
tegwin - 27/3/07 at 02:44 PM

I have wired up my escort switch gear to my mini wiper motor via two relays (fast and slow)...

I also have a park feed and a +ve feed to the motor...

The motor runs perfectly in slow and fast speeds...but...it wont self park...It just stopps when I turn the switch off....

Can anyone confirm which pin on the escort switch gear the park wire should go to?

And is the park sensor on the mini wiper likley to be faulty somehow?(did they die often)?

Yes, very common problem. I think I suffered from this in every mini (5!) I have ever owned.

The switch assembly is easy to replace but I recall it being quite expensive at the time.
