Just noticed recently that the headlamp wiper on the passenger side of my 2005 S60R was at a vertical position, and it's stopped working. Driver's side is fine.

Any ideas?

Also, is the driver's side the right or left hand side when looking at VIDA?!?

Thanks in advance as always.

Thought I would update this as I swapped the motor last night.: Bought a second hand one which had the wrong 'plate' fitted to the front. Undo four screws on both and swap them round and problem solved.
I am almost certain the motors fail due to a build of crud on the contacts (read somewhere that this was the case) and so will strip down the original and do a photo how to when I have time one night. Bumper removal is fairly easy if anyone wants to know how let me know!
