Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

15 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

ive managed to sort a few of the issues i had which all basically boiled down to the fact the battery was flat as a fart so ive just put in the 4th Bosch battery its had in 3 years and 931 miles !! the main thing thats bugging me through is that the window wipers and wash work fine when the ignition is turned to point 2 but as soon as the cars started the wipers/wash dont work at all, bizarre, i dont thing its the ignition switch even though i bought one and a local auto electrician wanted £400 to fit it, needless to say i said go ***** yourself you piss taking *****. however im not sure if its related but when ever i manage to get the key in the ignition (its a bit of a wrestle) it feels like its never gonna come out again cant be the stalks as everything else is ok when the cars running bar the wipers can anybody advise at all? i think ive exhausted Google Thanks

POST 2Original post

Any thoughts on inspecting the ignition switch and related wiring ?

POST 3Original post

when the car is started and the wipers on, try wiggling the key in the barrel and also move it clockwise/anticlockwise and see if it has an effect.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

yes they just stay off buddy until i turn the car off again im thinking it must be the ignition barrel as getting the key in and out of it is getting harder and harder i dont mind replacing the barrel if thats an option but i really dont want the car to have 2 different keys to open and start it ill be chipping it in next year sometime for a 991 or i may just keep it and see if they creep up a bit in a few years you dont think the ignition switch i bought would make any difference would it? the issue feels more mechanical than electrical if that makes sense ill try blasting a little wd40 into the lock to see if that helps loosen anything up at all

POST 5Original post

Hoping you get these issues sorted mate. Sorry can’t offer any advice but talk of a 991 sounds bloody brilliant

POST 6Original post

Have you give it a dose o' WD40? Edit: Sorry just seen your last sentence.
