I have a 2011 W164 that has developed an intermittent wiper problem.
The wipers stop working in rain sensing positions. If you turn the ignition key on with the wipers in constant speed (both normal and high speed they work and continue to work) but if you turn them off or to rain sensing positions then after few minutes they stop working. To get them working again you have to turn the ignition off and then back on with the wiper on constant speed.
This problem first developed in December 2019 and I have had the relays replaced, steering column switch (stork) replaced and the rain sensor renewed. All to no avail.
During the summer months the wipers worked fine, as soon as it got colder they have become intermittent again. I have trawled through the internet to try to fine an answer, but so far everything I have tried has not worked.
Can any one help with this?
