For about 2 months now i've driving around with the Rear tailgate wiper NOT working, thought it has seized.

I had bee changing a Bulbs (heated seat luminations) and a front fog so id thought i would take a look at the fuses in the fuse box.

Started to change suspect ones Corrosion etc fury on top old age etc etc and bingo LOL my rear wiper Now works again.

Fuse didnt look blown but the top had suffered corrosion.

Just thought id mention this worth a look before striping the motor out.

I thought you were going to say it had started working again since you fitted your poly top mount..... :hidesbehi

You can't beat a happy ending... I found a 12v socket/fag lighter in the back of the center console, facing toward the rear seats. I just thought it was another hole caused by plod but a rummage about under the console revealed a socket that had popped through - yay!

Think of that wasted movement energy the poly bush could be preventing ;)
