window wiper problem

[paul2508]

cant seem to find anything on here similar to my problem.
when i twist the wiper stick to the first setting(dwell) the wipers move once just after a buzz noise,then when the wipers come back down another buzz follows,after that they wont go up again. its like the dwell timing is gone on it,the other settings on the wipers are grand tho
any suggestions...??

That rings a bell, though I can't remember if it was the FTO or another car I had, remember something vaguely about moving one of the stalks and hearing a buzz but again can't remember what stalk it was for or what happened, but I think I got the stalk replaced in the end. Not much help I know but just said I'd let you know it has happened me at some stage in some car sometime, in a galaxy far far away...............
