  • Forgetful Rear Window Wiper

    I have a small issue with the rear window wiper.

    Say I've been driving in the rain with the rear window wiper set to on. I then leave it on when I get home. When I get back in the car, it's still set to on.

    The problem is that it forgets it's on, so I have to turn it off and then back on for it work.

    Not a major problem, but it's been annoying me!

          It's so you don't drive down the road the next day scrapping your dry wiper across your glass.

            Well obviously this is preferable to rotating a switch off then on-_-

              I actually never leave mine switched on I just switch on then straight off has 9 out of 10 times you only need to wipe rear window every now and again and I think the intermiten relay is timed far to close together

                I only use my rear wiper to entertain my dog, she loves chasing it across the back window!

                        I don't even know if my rear wiper works, I've never actually tried it.

                            I turned that option off as soon as I got my car home.
