    Wiper trouble

    I have some issues with the wipers on my 1996 300 tdi Defender. I have isolated the problem to be with the motor, since wipers move easy. With a little help (a knock from at screwdriver or little hammer) it starts and runs normally. Without help it will not start unless I turn to max speed...

    Starter turns the engine when I put xtra earth from pin 86 on the starter relay to the negative terminal on the battery. The original wire from Pin 86 runs to an alarm ECU. My next task is to locate this alarm ECU. I think there is something related to the immobilizer/alarm ECU.
