Anyone got a spare wiper stalk unit?

Hi,

My cars finally almost back from DG's but the wash wipe stalk on the steering column has gone and thats an MOT fail! Can any one help?

Cheers

Jon

Gone as in not there or not working You gotta watch that DG The lever/switch itself is a fairly simple device and shouldn't take much to fix if it has a problem .Mine was playing up for ages ,I had to rewire the relay in the end and all is good .

Gone as in it's there (i hope!!!!) and the wipers work but not the wash.....

I can't wait to have it back its been soooooooooooooooooooooooo long!

AND i can't wait to see what difference the mods have made.

I know the feeling ...................
Check the motor's working first ,then the pipes if ok .Mine was very intermittent ,someone in the past had had a go at a rewire but it was w##k.I ended up running some new wires from the relay to motor .

Until recently it just required a bit of searching to get the water spraying and the wipers going but it seems that it's not making contact any more....

Yep , just the same as mine .You had to fiddle about a lot to get a result :lol:

Whey hey!!!!!!!

How did you wire that up then? Do i need to remove the stalk assembly? Is it tough?

I had this problem a few years back.
I'm pretty sure the answer to your problem is a new stalk/switch unit - it was for me.
I don't remember it being very expensive or difficult to get one - I didn't have to wait. It's a very standard-Renault-looking unit made by Lucas so I would have thought it should be easy to get hold of one.

I think I went through a similar process that's been described here and I'd already ordered a new washer pump (which wasn't really the right one - it was different to what was in there, at least) took it all to bits and still nothing when I wanted screenwash but the wipers worked. In the end, I gave up but had it sorted very quickly at ARR at a very reasonable price.

I had this problem fitted a new switch last week cost £23 from Renault

BRILLIANT!!!!
