Hymer Exsis i588

Started in 1980
Just gone to take the van out and the wipers are not working.
They we’re fine a couple of days ago.
Screenwasher works OK.
Blades are not stuck to screen and no sign that the motor is struggling.
Checked the 20amp dash fuse and that’s OK.
2018 model on a Fiat chassis.
Anyone ever encountered this problem.
 
Just an update in case it helps someone.
AA arrived courtesy of ComfortInsurance breakdown cover.
Tested that power was at the connector to the motor and then gave the motor a sharp tap.
All working now.😂
Dont want to take a chance on it packing up on foreign travels so new motor ordered.
 
"gave the motor a sharp tap" technical works for me (y) :madder::LOL:

Good to hear you have a resolution of sorts. Out of interest, did you order the replacement motor via Hymer dealer? What was the cost of the new motor?
 
Did you find a motor at a sensible price or did you pay silly Hymer prices?
Hope it was the motor as there is a Schaudt relay box mounted near the motor and they are known for playing up.

Hopefully the motor Lenny as tests showed power supply was OK.
It May be another example of sea air atmosphere getting into things.
There are downsides to being very close to the sea 🤦
