    A temporary solution to wipers not working is to apply Rain-X to your windshield. This is a water repellent which will cause rainwater to bead and run off from wind. This works extremely well at speeds over about 45 MPH (about 70 km/h). When you’re traveling at typical in-town speeds, there is not enough wind to blow the water off your windshield, but the water will still bead, so it’s still somewhat effective.
    I recommend using Rain-X even with the wipers working, just running them as necessary…you will see much better.

    Hi, I got the same issue and behaviour of the front wipers and in addition the rear one too on my e39'03 tourer and I've replaced the relay with newer production year, but no changes to the wipers behaviour.
    Still seeking for the trouble. Assume the switch/lever is faulty.
    Good video by the way! BMW is always fun!

    Great video, i liked that you tested the relais on his function :=) i got nearly the same problem with my bmw 316i e46 sometimes wipers are working, sometimes they stop wiping without pullung the lever...so i think its the relais too in my case

    Great video mate. You can move that black drain cover at the back with a 10mm wrench, loosen the bolt slightly and it slips right out! Ive had the same issue but after rebuilding my relay my wipers fail after 5 mins or so. No closer to finding the problem.

    • @WarpDriveM
      @WarpDriveM  4 роки тому

      Now i know....your problem might be in the motor or the arms that are stuck or moving hard and drains too much current and that's why is blowing the relay

    I don’t have the same issue in my e46. My wipers work, but the spin knob in the wiper lever doesn’t work that controls the speed when put at the first push up. Does the relay control that part of it as well. Chasing it and have no idea where to look. Do you know if the relay controls that as well?

    • @WarpDriveM
      @WarpDriveM  3 роки тому

      Nope, that is controlled by a module, it might be just the stock bad or you can check it with a scanner to see if the module has an error

    Hey Warp Drive M - the next time you need to get into your fuse panel, check out the red fuse puller (at seen about 1:40 of your video here). That's a really nice BMW adder...use it and don't lose it! :-)

    • @WarpDriveM
      @WarpDriveM  4 роки тому

      You can check the arms on the inside. Between the motor and the hole from the arm you should have small channels. If those are rounded that is your problem. And check if the nut is completely tight as well. If everything is ok scan the car to see if you have an electrical error for the wipers and you go from there.

      Your problem is the module that control the wipers. It might be the FRM module. Check if something else is not working like windows, interior lights or something else that is run from that module. You can check it with a scanner
