So for a while now whenever i turn my wipers on they go straight to high and the wiper fluid pump turns on for a second off for a second repetitively. Not that this is already enoguh it is impossible to stop the wiperes going without turning the car completely off. Now all of a sudden the wipers have started coming on when I turn on my left indicator. Thankfully they do turn off with the indicator.

Anyone got any ideas on what's causing this bug? I've been running it on 10% ethanol for a while. Is my zook drunk?

I would be pulling off steering wheel and column covers to see what is going on with the switches. If you can't find anything obvious then track down a complete second hand setup (wiper and indicator stalks) and swap it over. Sounds like something has broken/worn out in there.

It's got nothing to do with the fuel by the way...

on mine when you used to press the brake the left indicator came on solid then for a while when you turned on the left hand the indicator the right hand brake light would flash then it all started working properly again :lol:

That's caused by a bad earth, probably around your tailight area. Either it's corroded, or has been given a good coat of paint after an accident.

The original problem does sound like a problem with the stalk though
