Hi all
Is there anyone living near Kettering Northants that owns a W210 estate, that would mind letting me test my rear wiper motor on their car. I am pretty certain that my wiring is good, but I have tried a replacement wiper motor on our car and it doesn't work. The seller, Mercman, has asked that I send it back to him as he tells me that he tested it before despatch and it worked 100% (although I am suspicious that his testing procedure was to put +12 Volts on the motor terminal and 0 Volts to the earth terminal, thereby only powering the motor and none of the other components...). I really want to be sure that the wiring can operate the motor.
I guess that a jury rigged lamp assembly should do the same thing though? I will try to do that over the weekend if I get time and a dry day
TIA
Keith
