Rear window wiper that does not work on an Opel Zafira B.

Model: Vauxhall Zafira Zafira B, A05, MK 2 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Checks and maintenance

We see a problem that occurred on an Opel Zafira B: the rear window regulator was not working. After conducting some checks to rule out various types of errors, such as checking if fuse no. 5 located in the box in the trunk is still intact. Another test is to check if the button is responsible, and this can be done by trying to open it from the door and then from the driver's control panel. If all this does not work, then we follow the advice of the youtuber, and open the tube containing the wires between the frame and the door. In the case illustrated, there were two cables, one positive and one negative, that were touching each other, generating a short circuit. In addition, many cables were damaged and needed to be repaired.
