[QUOTE="ozziedog, post: 630897, member: 13810"] As Dav says, lube is critical and have a good look to see if theres any tell tales of heat anywhere as said ^^^ . Good possibility that you’ve blown a fuse to boot. This Australian type of van is the only one in the world that has right hand drive wipers as all others have left hand drive wipers, if you look on your front panel , you’ll see two grommets where the ordinary wipers would have been fitted by VW. As you’ve previously indicated, these have not been used much and are the original items, I’d add that they probably haven’t much wear in them because of that. I’d also add that they’re probably far superior to any replacement that is now currently available, so get them lubed and working . Just wiggling may indicate, exactly what has seized. Also not sure if there’s any difference in Ozzy RHD motors and linkages to Regular LHD wipers that the rest of us have. Ozziedog,,,,,,,,, not a lot of people knows that :) [/QUOTE]
