Default Intermittent wiper problem
Hi
I have a 2003 xtype with a wiper problem.The intermittent function operates correctly as long as the weather is dry,but as soon as it starts to rain it does not work.Any ideas?

hmmm, interesting. Works when it doesn't need to, then doesn't work when it needs to. When it is dry, what happens when you put your hand over the rain sensor at the top of the windshield? Could be the sensor....

I can not find a rainsensor. The windshield has been replaced before I purchased the vehicle. Would that make a difference?
