Mercedes E class 2006 Following heavy snow my near side windscreen wiper won't work. The drivers side is fine. Any ideas?

Sounds like you damaged the gear drive that operates the wiper arms, time for new wiper motor assembly is my guess. Don't use the wipers to brush off snow, very bad idea, the drive gears are plastic and on this old dog very brittle from age.

could have broken off someof the plastic inside that help moves the wipers. look for small pieces of debris and replace that part

Could be loose wiper arm. Are the blades heavy. Too big of wiper blade will cause problems

Check your fuse compartment under hood. Fuse 3 & 12 for windshield wipers and washers. More than likely you've overloaded the wiper motor causing a blown fuse.

wipers and washers have stop,d working on my 53 plate c180.......... any ideas please???????

you should check the connection to the main board and the connections to the motor for the wipers. these sometimes become gunked up, so when you pull them apart to check them clean them with sand paper or something that can scrub them like a green scratch pad

try changing the cabin filter, as that can restrict air flow

should be under the screwed down cover behind the fuses in the engine compartment.
If your wiper is having issues normally it is the mechanical side of the unit. Try going to www.benzworld.org or peachparts.com and look on how to lubricate it.

The problem is either the motor itself or the electric wiring to the motor. Check the motor connectors for corrosion under the hood grill near the windscreen. If they look ok get a set of jumper leads and connect them to the battery. Be careful not to touch them together. Then put them on the motor directly after disconnecting it if there is no instantaneous movement then undo the test rig because the motor is bad. If they work double check the connectors going to the motor its likely them.

hello,seem your combination switch have problem,remove your under dash,maybe poor connection on wiring or your combi. switch defective,ty
