So, today my 306 meridan's Auto wipers decided to play up. Working fine for about 20 seconds then on full speed non stop. I have a yeallow light glowing on the sensor, any idea why? I preumsed its just a faulty sensor so follwed the Haynes manual procedure on removing the interior mirror "Gently pull down on mirror to remove" I put way too much force into it and I am now left with 2, 4 inch cracks either side of the sensor part of the windscreen! Fail. Oh well just going have to put up with it for 2 weeks until pay day! The annoying "AUtoglass repair, autoglass replace" comes to mind....

They mean pull the mirror down towards the windscreen, not down vertically. No wonder your windscreens f****d now.
