Subject changes to turn signal control
For the first time I get in my A2 and turn the wipers on and they do not work. I even tried to help them along by trying to move the arm a little. Then I tapped on the motor but they never tried to move :/ where would you begin trouble shoot this?
Thanks Eddie
Thanks Eddie

Re: A2 electric wipers not working.
Were they working before?
Do you have power?
Switches DO degrade from lack of use, usually owing to a bit of corrosion on the contacts.. Happily, often all that one needs to do is open the switch, clean the contacts and maybe apply some dielectric grease.

Well tonight I got in flipped them on and they worked. But now the dang turn signals are not flashing.
Re: A2 electric wipers not working.
Check those leads for power. I would suggest that the commonality is you have some corroded contacts. It happens. Time to pull a little maintenance.

Re: A2 electric wipers not working.
The control to the turn signals got to were they were working. But tonight I got in nothing . Messed and messed with them and finally gave up.
I took the control arm off and opened it up. Looks like about 3 wires had been hot and melted the coating off. some where touching. What could cause this? Bad flasher unit? The wires that have bare spots are Orange and 2 yellows.
