Wipers and lights have a mind of their own

[javi1892]

Hi there!

Last two weeks I have been suffering an electric niggle. Everytime I switch the wipers on, the front lights flash. On the other hand, when I swicth the lights on, the wipers start to move :eek: .

Could it be something to to with the steering wheel conectors?

Regards.

Might be the ribbon cable.

I agree with Kojak.

Try somewhere like maplins, TVR charge a small fortune for one.

Thanks both. BTW is it difficult to change?

easy to do, just make sure you fold the cable right, otherwise you will have the same problem in a few months.
