Hi newby here needing some help on the wiring on the rear wiper. Just bought a Wagon Sport and the rear wiper doesn't work. If I disconnect the plug onto the motor there are 4 wires. 1 is a constant live with ignition on, 1 an earth and I take it the other 2 are a switched feed and a return for parking the wiper. As I mentioned there is 1 wire that is constantly on when you switch the ignition on. When you switch the wiper on at the stalk you can hear and feel the relay operating under the right hand rear light. That relay now 'beebs' every few seconds when the ignition is off, in fact you can hear it as you walk away from the car. Has anyone any ideas. Is it the relay is duff if so where can I get another one or can anyone help me out with a wiring diagram.
Many thanks

IIRC, the relay is a standard 5 terminal changeover type.

Any decent car electrics place will sell you one, or try here: Vehicle Wiring Products Ltd. Suppliers of auto electrical parts.

look at the wiring feeding the boot in the rubber on the offside of the roof as broken wires are very common on the wagons

the wiring for the wiper feeds in from the roof? oh yeah it would have to

wiper fixed it was the relay... more specifically the conection between the com pin and what would be pin number 76. went out and baught a new relay but had to take out the old harness as the pin confuguration was different. Although the weather may be bad up front... at least i can have a clear view to the rear
Now just to do that power stearing pump.
