that loom origanally went into the arch, someone moved it. as said there must be a broken wire in the loom as that loom is you wipers, indicators and a fe other things

also worth investigating the motor itself, if the connections in it for the intermitent workings are burned or dirty when it goes so far up it breaks contact so it stops until you hit the switch again, had same problem in bmw until i stripped and cleaned it, working grand since.

yeah that happens too
if i have the wipers on the slowest setting ill turn them on and theyll swipe once and then just die?
