Why does the windshield wiper on Volkswagen Golf MK5 not work?
Years 2003-2008

Answer

If the Volkswagen golf windshield wiper does not work, we will have to check that the nozzles which spray the liquid are not clogged with limescale and dirt. Also take a look at the pump, which is located next to the liquid depot. To be sure that it works let's try to operate the wiper; if we hear the noise of the pump activating then the pump is working, otherwise we will have to check perhaps the fuse which is #41 in the box in the cheek of the thickness of the dashboard.
