The wiper motor is located beneath the plastic grille directly under the windscreen. To access it, you need to remove the wiper arms (a good method is to mark the angle of the wipers with masking tape).

Once the arms are removed, detach the plastic grille, disconnect the motor's power connector, and unscrew the nuts securing the entire wiper mechanism to which the motor is also attached. Once the entire system is removed, you can work on the motor.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
