Hey all,

anyone help me on this one? I have a problem with my right hand side wiper, left one perfectly normal operation, the right one got stuck and now doesnt work at all, have checked the nut behind the blade and this is tight as can be however still doesnt move, left one as normal. Is it easy to fix myself with little knowledge of cars?
 
east to say but it all depends, start by lifting bonnet and remove the plastic cowling just below windscreen its held in place with screws and a couple of plastic clips then you will be able to see wiper motor and the arms that control the wipers ,,you will need to work from there depending on problem
 
I should imagine the linkage has popped off. VERY common on Puntos. There is a linkage upgrade available on this site to solve it.

Cheers,
Alan
