    windshield wiper pproblems

    Okay so i got an 89 325i a couple months ago and have yet to use the wipers until today. It was pouring like hell and i now have 2 problems i need to solve.

    So im driving to school and i realized that when i push the wipers down (like a single wipe) they work fine. But when i try to put it on a constant setting sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Also i put the slightest pressure on the handle and it will work perfect.

    Now on my way back from school i have the wipers going on the fastest setting and it was working okay for a while. After about 20 minutes, i hear a sound from the passenger side wiper then all the sudden it stopped working but the drivers side still works normal. I went to check it out and see the i can move the passenger side wiper freely with my hand.

    Basically i just want to get my wipers working again and what needs to be replaced

    you might want to check the wiper motor cause that might have been the problem. Just my opinion.

      If you could move the wiper switch to get it working, then it sounds like the switch is bad.

      Second problem sounds like the linkage came off. That's pretty easy to see what's broken. Take off the grill around the driver's side wiper and have a peek inside the wiper linkage area. You'll probably find something disconnected. Fixing it won't be quite so easy, there's not a lot of room in that little wiper area.
