WhisperingAl Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Hi Is it possible to switch off auto windscreen wipers on my A4 B7? I have had several different cars with auto wipers and none of them work. Either one wipe every three days or ten every second, well a slight exaggeration but you know what I mean. I guess the sensor is in the back of the mirror housing. What if I tape over it.

Hi if you tape over it the thing will work all the time as it works on opacity so the more its blocked the harder it works, this is quite a common problem on A4/A6 2012 up and is usually down to a cruddy control stalk on the steering wheel which is why there are so many second hand units for sale, you have to replace the whole unit which is a bit of a mission especially when you replace it as if you have not placed the squib ring in dead centre the steering goes bananas, try cleaning it with contact cleaner first.
