#1: trip computer / rear wiper issue Author: copey, Location: rochdalePosted: Thu Oct 23, 2014 3:03 pm ---- today finally got my car back after a new head gasket, but noticed today when driving it, sometimes when i press the trip computer button the rear wiper activates also sometimes seems to give it a funny clicking noise........and when i put the rear wiper on it clears my trip computer.
Anybody have any ideas?

For what it's worth just replace the whole comms unit, they're aren't that expensive new and if you're strapped for cash then there is a guy on eBay who refurbs them

nah it aint a relay click, more like a buzz/crackle don't usually get any kinda of noise from the trip computer
think al do a bsi reset first, then pull the end off and see what the crack is......then just get a replacement if needs be, won't hurt to have a gander myself
