Ford transit wiper

Postby Jasbol » Tue Jan 23, 2024 11:34 am

Hi I don’t know if anyone can help me
I have a problem with my ford transit mk7 wipers don’t
Turn off
When I put the stork back to the off position
The wipers keep running
I have changed the relay and the stork
But still happening
I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this

Clean the tracks inside the wiper motor, it's not getting a proper park position.

Yes....What Airthies said....the little rotary tracks inside the motor itself wear, break and/or get crap all over them, they then can often "skip" over the contact point where they would normally stop for parking etc......sometimes it's easier to just buy a new wiper motor.
