Looks like they are fixed after the little bump

Thanks, have booked it in with the dealer as it sounds like it is a pre curser to them packing up completely.
Would not be good in this weather, might rain-x the screen just in case as they can not take it till tuesday. |

While mine are working (touch wood), I did try Rain-X on the windscreen, as I use it on the other car to great effect.
I found that it really didn't do much on the Defender. Perhaps it is the shape/angle of the windscreen? Actually - it kind of made everything greasy and streaky. |

well following 3 trips to the dealer the wipers are fixed, they swapped the wiper motor, swapped the relay and checked the fuses, it still would not work. It was eventually traced to a wiring fault, so new bit of loom and away we go.
I am guessing the wiring had rubbed through but they were not for saying exactly. |
