Re: Rear Wiper fault finding and location of relay? Polo 2010

Thank you so much for your help. It turned out to be the SB41 fuse. Swapped another one in and Bob's your uncle!

Incidentally, the Polo shares it's rear wiper motor with the VW Touran. Part number 5K6 955 435 for anyone in a similar bind where the motor is knackered. I probably didn't need to ...

Where is the relay and how to identify it please?
And how would ...
