The rain sensing wipers are temperamental and have two speed settings that can be selected on the indicator stalk and I have done the usual cleaning the sensor on windscreen/entire windscreen etc. to no avail. My question is on Star can the sensitivity levels be adjusted and if so then what menus/sub menus to navigate through on Star to do this?

When I was last at MSL we were unable to do so via Star.
 
Check the condition of your wiper rubbers. Only needs a slight smear to upset the sensor.
 
Thanks for replies - wipers are failry new in good condition. Unless there is a way of checking and adjusting the sensitivity level via Star than I guess it is most likely the sensor at fault here but will try with new wipers again.
 
Update: Issue has now been resolved by MB dealership. Sensor was reset via Star and now working perfect and no fault with sensor.
