Rear wiper failure

Post by lborob17 »

Hi First post here! - bit of imposer as I own a Signum but have found forums excelent for getting information!

My Father has a 2001 V70 140 auto. He has had i since it had 6K on the clock (it has only done 26K now!!) :shock:

However the rear wiper motor has stopped working suddenly - he has checked the fuse and all seems well.

Anyone got any ideaS?

I looked for a relay but cant find anything relating to which is which relay in the rear fuse compartment - so dont know which one to pull!

The car spends most of its life in his garage and looks brand new even underneath! :shock: so I think I have ruled out the possibility of it seizing up!! :D

cheers
Rich

Seems like it could be as simple as a fuse. Is it not listed in your owners' manual?
