#1: wipers dead, possible bsi??? Author: anton7350, Location: Northern IrelandPosted: Mon Dec 19, 2011 8:24 am ---- So after saving my car again for another couple of months my windscreen wipers die, after checking the fuses and replacing the wiper motor they still fail to work took car to 2 mechanics and a car electrician and none of them could work out what was wrong after testing everything. so iv took the plunge and got it booked into my local dealer for half 8 tomorrow morning, I have been told that it could be the bsi unit and expect big money to sort it out, anyone else know what the issue could be????

Trust things to go as soon as my work holidays start lol. hopefully the stealers should be able to workout what is up with it.

For the wipers, if the switch is ok, motor is ok, wiring is ok and fuse is ok, then it's just the relay in the BSI
