Default 2004 Disco Wiper Issue
New owner.
100K+ on the beast
Wipers sorta work most/some of the time, however when the temp drops they don't work at all.
Bad relay, motor ?????

TIA.

Sounds like bad motor. There's switches in the motor that wear out. Replaced with new motor and all was fixed.

The switch on the Stalk has grease inside that when wearing out will get hard in cold weather. You can clean and replace that grease, then all will be well in Rainy Weather.

Thanks.
I don't think it's the switch.
The blades move kind of erractically or not at all.
I think the motor is the culprit.

Still sounds like the switch to me. Mine has done it in cold weather. Does not work at all, or erratic. Warm weather, it's fine.
