Re: primary linkage arm for windscreen wipers

Hi Dave. Took your advice with the open ended spanner, worked a treat. Wipers back up and running although they required new spindles as the old one in the centre had ceased solid. took advice from other forum users and went to Rimmers for the parts. Motor checked and even after 24 years it's in per...

I have managed to find a new partial linkage kit including both spindles and the linkage arm that connect...

Re: Heater sliding on/off switch or heater switch control pa
