Window Wipers Don't Work
Just bought a 1998 Audi A4 2.8 Quattro and when I pull the lever to switch on the window wipers nothing happens. Called the previous owner and he said that he thinks it's just a loose connection to the fuse. Any help with how I fix it?

. However, I just wanted to pass this link along to keep in your back pocket should you end up having to replace any of the mechanical parts.https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho...ghlight=wipers
Best of luck with your current problem.

That's a great link, thanks. But before I go through all that trouble I need to find out if it's just a loose connection to the fuse or not. If that isn't the problem then I'm sure the real problem does lie with the transmission.

Right on. See if you have a loose connection somewhere first. Have you tried a new fuse as well even if the current one may look physically ok? Don't assume it's good.

This should be it Matt, if not, let me know as my source would be wrong then. My source is for a B5.

Also check the harness connection at the motor, it shows that in the DIY, they can get corroded pretty badly. Another lesson in why you should wash you car!

What is your source? I just bought a repair manual for my car and it's telling me it's numbers ten and eleven but none of the other fuses match up with what my manual is telling me.
