216gsi rear wiper relay - sparky93
does anyone know where the relay is for the rear wiper.

the motor is ok, but no volts getting to it.

I have a 214sli and i found the relay for that car(both J reg) behind the
osr cluster and it was green,

but its not there in the 216.

not in fusebox, or in bay.

anyone know?

I think the relay is in the same location behind o/s/r light ,but it may have fallen down into the lower rear wing area where it is rusting away.hth

ahh, right, I have eventually got round to looking again.

II FOUND IT!! the prev owner must have took the bracket off the lamp cluster nut, and it was in the bottom of the shell rusting well. i put another one in and it now works. now to get a relay for my own as that was the test/doner part lol

If it doesnt work after that you may have to strip the wiper motor as they often got flooded and corroded internally.
