02 Ford Taurus windshield wipers will not work in the rain?
My 02 Taurus windshield wipers will stop working everytime it rains but as soon as it stops raining they work again. I was wondering what should I check?
Check for the nearest Ford dealer. You are not going to be able to diagnose this yourself.
Sounds like a malfunctioning rain sensor. They are supposed to detect when it rains and come on automatically, but if they are wired wrong or faulty, it can do the opposite, and only come on when it doesn't detect rain.
Check for a bad ground connection to the wiper motor. Ground connection is likely rusted out. You can connect a ground wire from the wiper motor direct to battery negative and see if the issue goes away.
How do it no?
Yourself into a mental Institute.
- What are the thread and pitch measurements of the windshield wiper arm nut of a Ford Taurus 2002? The nut that came with the car out of the factory. The one I have now stripped and needs replaced. Went to O reillys for help and they told me to get the Thread and Pitch measurements and I don't have the tool for that.
- I took my car in to have the A/C fixed and now my windshield wipers don't work. What might be the problem? 2005 Ford Freestar Is this something I can fix easily myself or should I just bring it back to the shop?
- How to change speed on my windshield wipers? I have a 2003 Ford Windstar. I turn the wipers on high, but they're really slow. I can't drive in the rain, period. That's how slow they are, on high. What could it be and what can I do?
- How much do windshield wipers arm cost? Its a 1999 ford range if that makes any difference They stole the whole arm and blade some I'm wondering how much would it cost for both?
