Windscreen wipers on full when car parked and locked by Ed3 (Page 3 of 3)

Thanks Steve, Success for last 24 hours so far with stopping the electrics doing as they wish. I left things on top of the wipers for 24+ hours so I would know if they move. and good news no movement of wipers or other issues for 24 hours.

The routine seems to be to stop the supply of rain water to electrics while using a contact spray inside the immobiliser plug connections and unplug and plug back in a number of times with contact cleaner spray as a way to clean without damaging the contacts.

I tend to do the work on the Rover just a little each day. With 3 out of 4 drains working, to stop rain water inside the car I have plugged the drivers side drain at the sunroof using flexible universal windscreen washer pipe and now I will see if I can get a modified pipe end that I bought from DMGRS onto the drain pipe above the immobiliser. Another day after that I will peel back the wheel arch liner and see how the mod pipe end fits into the rubber outlet.

Steve's photos show the light switch well. Water can run down the wires and into the connector, and you won't always see it. As he said, disconnect the main connector (using the white bar).
