Wiper Jammed during Rainy Days

Hi guys, does anyone face the same problem as me?
My wiper will jam and stop moving. When I turn on the wiper controller, the wipers start to sweep again but I can't stop it.
It will jam again.

I went to my mechanic and he changed a fuse for me. The problem still returns and he told me that I need to change the wiper
system which cost a fair sum of money. Does anyone has similar issue and rectify it with a simpler and cheaper solution.

Try Dr Rod at R2D, get a proper diagnosis of the problem and he will advise you the option(s) on fixing it.

If it ain't broken, he will not ask you to replace the parts.

Re: Wiper Jammed during Rainy Days

Guys, I noticed in the last couple of wks my wiper movement was slow as compared to normal. I tried adjusting the speed but same slow speed occurs. With today's downpour my wiper failed all together, it stopped moving. So can't drive. wiper washer is working still. Anyone has same experience? Oh I am driving '06 E90. Tks
 
Re: Wiper Jammed during Rainy Days

I had the same problem a few weeks ago, wiper jam half way. Just change the wiper relay and all is back to normal again (cross fingers).

As bro growler mentioned, there's a recall going on for all f20/f30 for Fem that will fix wiper jam, something to do with wrong current sent to the wiper unit causing it to jam. Send back to pml/ma for rectification.

Bro, could it be your fuse? I have similar issue and I have changed the fuse but doesn't work. Recently, my friend drove my car and had the same problem and he just got out of the car and push the wiper down and since then it works without complain. I also don't know how to explain this rectification. Wierd though!

My intermitten wiping speed is always the same. So sick. Going to bring down to Rodney and let him take alone during my service.

Driving an F30.

My just went 3 days ago. It will still sweep but the rain sensor does not sense rain and keep the wiper on. If you turn it off, the blades will stop where it is and not return to the base of the screen.

Went to MA yesterday. They did the FEM but the wiper unit is already damaged and they need to order a replacement module for Germany. Lead time 14 working days. Covered by warranty.

I'm just hoping the wipers will not just stop working all together. Especially in these days of rain!
