mrvwbug Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 My rear wiper is not working. Not sure if this is the motor or a fuse of some sort. Please let me know your thoughts before a come to execute a plan of action. I suppose I could try a new motor, but want to make sure this is it without a doubt. Please let me know. Thanks, SLim Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedy2222 Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 likely a saggy hatch, it all grounds through the struts, and if it's sagging it wont make connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliConquestAlex Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 likely a saggy hatch, it all grounds through the struts, and if it's sagging it wont make connection This! When I first got my car the rear wiper didn't work. I adjusted the hatch and that fixed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeMeyerhoff Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 The contact sleeve itself also has a set screw for adjusting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-R-Quest Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Mine didn't at all unless the hatch was latched tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasQuest Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 Also make sure the metal button tabs are not bent and making contact inside the hatch strut housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
