Having just got Florence back on August 27th and had a couple of trips I now have a new problem.
Tricia and I travelled up to Manchester yesterday (Thursday 8th Sept) to stay with my daughter Lucy on our way to the Lakes on Saturday. Sadly the windscreen wipers packed up on the motorway five miles from Lucy’s. Fortunately the rain was quite light and we were able to get safely to our destination. The motor is still working when I tried the switch - you can here it running but the wipers don’t move. I can move the blades manually and they are all still connected to each other. I tried turning them on again they moved a little but then stopped.
So it seems the motor is still working and the wipers are moving but the two appear not to be connected properly any more. I would add that this is only my guess as I wouldn't profess to know how all these things work.
The motor is behind the glove box (and occupies most of it) and seems pretty inaccessible. It would seem that what little access there is would be from underneath the dash but it looks like the dash needs to come out to get at it properly.
Has anybody else had this problem and if so are you able to offer an advice/help?
Yours hopefully,
John
