catattoo Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Over time my windshield has occasionally quit working when trying to lower the windshield. Last year a bit of wd 40 on the switch made everything better. Now it seems to be down for the count! before I buy a new switch is there anything else I should check? I don't see a fuse for the windshield. The dang thing is all the way up and I don't like that!
Boffin Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 There are two relays for the windshield motor, one for up, the other for down. These are located under the top dash cover at the top-right. Swap them over and if the shield goes down but not up you have a dead relay. Andy
Traveler Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Hey! Great advice! Love this info sharing thing...
ARCHIE1 Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 i have a 04 rt and my windshield would stop completely while going down and finally stopped. my friendly BMW dealer found nothing wrong (ha! ha!). it worked ok for while but is now showing signs of trouble in that it has not stopped but is very slow on the down movement. i guess i will wait until it stops again and give the dealer another try!!
