#2: Re: Electrical question Author: -Dave-, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:09 pm ---- It is the relay clicking. It's normal.
#3: Re: Electrical question Author: Jay0913, Posted: Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:16 pm ---- Is there a reason why its so loud? Thanks
#4: Re: Electrical question Author: pug206lx, Location: Taking a gearbox off somewherePosted: Fri Oct 05, 2012 4:28 pm ---- Its the relay switching to allow power to travel to the motor and is normal
#5: Re: Electrical question Author: karimali831, Location: EnglandPosted: Fri Oct 05, 2012 6:32 pm ---- I'm sure it only does this for the rear wiper?

Does your key have a large chrome lion on it with pad locks on the buttons or do you have a pear shaped key with plastic black buttons?

Doesnt really matter as they both make the relay click noise when the rear wiper is being used.
#11: Re: Electrical question Author: Jay0913, Posted: Sat Oct 06, 2012 3:25 pm ---- This is my key
#12: Re: Electrical question Author: macca1411, Location: Westhoughton, LancashirePosted: Sat Oct 06, 2012 4:15 pm ---- If your car was built before 1st October 2001, it's pre-plexed.
The picture of the key you posted confirms it's pre-plex.
How to identify if your car is pre-plex or plexed is explained in the beginners guide which used to have a link to it from the welcome message you got in your private messages inbox when you first signed up. Don't know if this still happens.
#13: Re: Electrical question Author: pug206lx, Location: Taking a gearbox off somewherePosted: Sat Oct 06, 2012 4:18 pm ---- Yep as Macca said it's Pre-plexed or Non multiplexed.
#14: Re: Electrical question Author: Jay0913, Posted: Sat Oct 06, 2012 4:45 pm ---- Thanks so in that case if my car indicates on its own what would i need to do?

#16: Re: Electrical question Author: pug206lx, Location: Taking a gearbox off somewherePosted: Sat Oct 06, 2012 4:54 pm ---- Indicator stalk. On your car you can replace just the stalk. I take it that it is indicating left?
