Hello chaps.

My daughters 1997 1.9 litre Z3 has developed a fault, I'm used to playing with 5's but not Z3's.

The fault is on single speed wipe, it does intermittent instead.

So we now have, off, int, int,double speed , instead of off,int, single speed, double speed.

Any help, drawings etc please ?

(I'm familiar where the different modules are on an E34 or 39, but not the Z3.)

You do know that on continuous wipe the wipers will drop back to intermittent when the car is stationary don't you? At least my 52 plate 2.2 Sport does.

Chaps, I am such a pillock, thanks for your help ...... embarassed now lol.

Either my daughter is confused, the fault is very intermittent, or motco is spot and ..... and I've had four BMW's, still have one now, and mine does the same, so quite why I'm stripping her car down now eludes me !
