Hello Fellow Jag fans!

We own a lovely, well-kept 1996 Vanden Plas. We have been driving it for going on two years now and love it. We are new to the forum world. I (Mrs.) have been researching here for a couple of hours and am so impressed, that I decided we need to join!

Our top problem right now is that the windshield wiper is dead. We have been working around the problem by using Rain-X and/or not driving it in the rain. Our "work-around" is not working so well, due to changing work schedules. It is time to solve the mystery once and for all!

I have found several threads that have suggested some things to try that may help. I will definitely post Thank Yous after we have given them a whirl.

We have already checked fuses, relays, motor (must ask the Mister if I left anything out).

Symptom: Died one day on the way home in the rain. Hasn't worked since.

Thank you in advance...

Welcome to the forum vandenplease,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

It sounds like you've already found the way to your model tech forum but if not, follow this link XJ XJ6 / XJR6 ( X300 ) - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the X300 forum for help, advice and information.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.
