Discovery1. Wipers won't stop, headlights won't start

Andytts · Nov 10, 2011

I found the big red wiper relay behind the rhs footwell side-panel. It was half full of water causing the electronics to run the wipers all the time. Took it apart, cleaned it, all OK.

The headlight relay was next to it. That was full of rusty sludge and was stopping it from making contact. A new relay and all is fine.

Hope that may help someone - oh, and avoid wading so deep next time!

Might pay to clean the rest of the relays and think about moving the panel or boxing in up.

Bet you're going through that puddle again.
