Hi, I've just joined the Fiat Forum and I'm hoping that someone can advise me on my problem. I own a 55 plate Fiat Panda turbodiesel. Recently, the front wipers started to behave oddly. Basically they only ever work when they are set to fast speed. When set to fast they sometimes work and sometimes not, if they do not work the only way to get them going is to switch the engine off and then on again and try once more. Once going, they usually stop in any case within a minute or so. They do not work at all when set to intermittent or normal speed. The back wiper works just fine.
I'm a very poor mechanic but am eager to try and fix this myself if at all possible because I suspect that a garage or dealer will simply change everything which I imagine would be costly......
I'm assuming that the motor itself works or the wipers would not move whichever setting I put them to and that therefore the problem might lie with a switch, fuse, relay.........I'm half guessing at that, but it seems to make sense.
I would be eternally grateful to anyone able and willing to advise me on this matter.
Thank you,
David
