#1: Rain sensitive wipers Author: Ahoward87, Location: HertfordshirePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 10:25 am ---- When i put the intermittent wipers on the wipers have a mind of their own. Sometimes waits 5 seconds when its raining and then sometimes only 1 second.
It is doing my head in!!
Is it some thing like a faulty sensor?

#3: Re: Rain sensitive wipers Author: john206gti, Location: south shieldsPosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 10:28 am ---- Have you got auto-wipers?
They will only wipe when rain goes on the sensor fitted to the top of the windscreen.
#4: Re: Rain sensitive wipers Author: Ahoward87, Location: HertfordshirePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 10:35 am ---- Yes they are auto wipers. Its bloody annoying when it's only spitting as I have to manually do it by pushing the stalk down. My wipers can make noise if there is not enough water on the windscreen.
#5: Re: Rain sensitive wipers Author: lmilligan, Location: HertfordshirePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 10:38 am ---- Is the auto wiper sensor in the top left hand corner of the windscreen?
#6: Re: Rain sensitive wipers Author: Ahoward87, Location: HertfordshirePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 10:40 am ---- Tbh I haven't looked. I'll go and have look now.....
#7: Re: Rain sensitive wipers Author: lmilligan, Location: HertfordshirePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 10:42 am ---- Just curious because I have some odd thing in the corner of my windscreen and dont have a clue what it is

It's a hard life having to use a finger to push a piece of plastic. Hope you don't want the window down as you may actually have to move your hand away from the steering wheel
Seriously though, if you don't want auto wipers on, just turn them off. It tells you in the drivers handbook how to do it.
Problem solved.

I think the rain sensor is in the middle of the windscreen near the interior mirror.
#9: Re: Rain sensitive wipers Author: Ahoward87, Location: HertfordshirePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 11:18 am ---- I don't have my manual to hand at the moment , does anyone know how to turn the rain sensor off?
#10: Re: Rain sensitive wipers Author: Mikey2uk, Location: StevenagePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 11:20 am ---- Yeah dont have the stalk in auto

Luckily for you and all the other people who don't have one, Peugeot provide it online free of charge
#12: Re: Rain sensitive wipers Author: Ahoward87, Location: HertfordshirePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 11:56 am ---- That link is directing me to the handbook page but when I select the correct language it only brings a blank screen, I'm on a iPad so maybe that is the problem :/

Link works fine. I've taken it through to the vehicle select page. If it's not working must be the i-pad
