window wipers

[danfrith]

Hi Guys,
Window wipers on my last cerbera were always dodgy. New cerbera was fine, until yesterday. flipped over to the right, but will not go back again.

If you retrack them so they are not tocuhing windscreen they move back again, but as soon as they are in contact with screen they wont go back! nothing wrong with aligment etc. its like they have lost power. they try to come back.

any ideas, anyone had this prob?

cheers

Mine did that. I switched the car off locked it, lifted the blades, unlocked and started it, wet the widscreen to reduce the friction and when I switched them back on with the engine running they worked agin. Weird. Hope it works
