    Wipers dont work

    Whats up with that. I go to test them out when its raining and nothing. Is there anything other than the motor that could be causing this?

    Thanks guys

        switch is a no, but thats the answer I was looking for, the relay. Which relay is the wiper relay? Is it in that cluster of 3 off to the side of the fuze box?

            So it's part of the main relay? And I know, but between the haynes and you guys, why add a 3rd wheel?

                  No, the "main" relays as you call them are as followed: Main, fuel pump, o2 sensor

                  Haynes sucks, and I am sure not all of us wants to look it up in our Bentley for you ;)

                  The wiper relay is in the FUSE box, not with the three relays. It will be double the size of a normal relay and black if I recall.

                      Buy it, I could not put it down the first two weeks I had it. 32 bucks is not much for the nutty amount of info in it.

                          Mine does the same, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. What's causing this, a short?

                              Could be the wiper switch on the steering column or the relay. Just start from over looking wires and then relays and switches.
