More wet-weather gremlins!

To clarify - that's In Car Entertainment - not frozen water

So, just got back from playing Badminton & turned my wipers off only to find that they were still going! :?

They work on an 'interval' mode; slightly faster than normal interval mode, and are accompanied by a electrical buzzing. Lovely. :roll:

Anyone come across this one before?? :|

Sorry about the crap video. It was dark innit.

both items are linked. under the middle of the dash behind the gear shifter is a control box that controls the intermittent wiper motion. sounds like its got dirty contacts within the intigrated control circuit

Cheers Sam, I have to say though..it has to be to do with the wet weather. Never happened before, & it's been pissing it down here! Had to go through a few deep puddles today as well..although slowly.

Could there be water in the fusebox, affecting a relay perhaps?

not likely. its definitely the icu. take it out and have a look see if that is damp. are the carpets wet? perhaps the damp from the carpet is rising as condensation.

Yeah maybe. It did smell a bit damp in there yesterday actually.

I'll take a look when I get the chance.

Cheers mate. ;)

I go with curly, my interior is very humid at the mo. takes about 5 mins to clear the inside of 'screen before I can see out of it, my speedo cluster glass is also misting up from the inside, overly humid, at the mo.
