Evening people,
My windscreen wipers have stopped working! Now you will probably say its due to the low or FREEZING temperatures but surely I should still be able to hear the whiney noise when I pull back the leaver to activate the water flow???
If it turns out that a fuse has gone, where will this be located? e.g. driver side or bonnet?
I'm sure this stuff has been mentioned on this website but I am not a big fan of the search function!
Any help advice will be appriciated!

Fuse 25 in drivers fuse box
Does the rear wiper work?
If not, then it could be the stalk that is faulty if the fuse is ok

Mine did this, exact same symptoms of no noise or blown fuse but wipers worked fine. Started working yesterday in the end now the temps have started warming up a bit so I'd guess its just a frozen washer bottle. I've since drained and filled with proper screen wash as the stuff that was in there was likely to be just water after the times I topped it up from the hose

Its the water in the pump that has frozen, thus it wont make a noise because the motor cannot turn...

We are having alot of cars come in at the moment with the same problem its normally down to the screenwash in the resivoir tank being frozen think when you going along we have taken readings of cars temps going down to -20degrees stupid, i wouldnt worry about it
