Hi All,

Rear wiper on the R32 GT-R stopped working. No washer jet either. Tried a known working switch to no avail. Fuse looks good. Strange that the washer jet doesn't work any more. Used to work fine until last week.

There is a small box just next to the wiper motor in the boot labelled 'amp wiper', will look at replacing it. Still doesn't explain the washer jet not working.

Any tips will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Sorry to strap onto this thread but does the rear sqirter have a separate water bottle and if so where is it located.

Ps. Sold 10 Wiper delete plugs this week.

Maybe one of these guys would give/sell the rear wiper motor to you ?. Just a thought.

no.

runs out of the main washer bottle from 2nd pump.

Thanks Luke

If I put the wiper motor back in I'll check the second pump up front. It's never worked. Maybe not plugged or motor blown.

Oh and I'll reconnect the tube in the rear too. For a Laugh I was thinking of aiming it to the right to squirt others.

Hey champ if ur after the rear motor I give it to u

Hey mate, have you tried replacing the wiper motor? These tend to die when brushes wear low. These power jets and blades.. Sorry that's all I know

Thanks for the tip. I haven't tested the motor yet.

There are two pumps on the washer bottle in the engine bay so I thought the rear washer ran off that, but it could be possible that there's a second pump in the wiper assembly.

Anyone have a known working one they want to sell to me cheap cheap? :P

Finally got around to trying the spare wiper motor I got (thank you gtr0321994). Unfortunately still no go. There is voltage at the wiper amp box thing and the plug at the motor. Looks like it's a relay or *shudders* wiring.

4WD relay also died :glare:

Off topic, but does anyone know what this is?

Found in the passenger side guard, next to the jack.

Antenna booster?

    • Read the ECU for fault codes or have someone else do it. A faulty coolant temperature sender is usually listed in ECUs. If the sensor itself is not busted it can also be a bad ground connection. Or in a really unlucky case, damaged wiring.
    • Can't be a Futjitsubo as those are made with a flex piece and Reimax is smaller in pipe diameter. If anything it is closest to a Mines pipe, but evidently it is not an actual Mines pipe.   Classic word humor
    • Alright I will try to not forget.   As GTSboy replied to you already, problem is mainly the mismatch between the actual exhaust part and the denomination in the papers. That basically just looks like tampering to a cop, if they were to check your car and notice. If it had been done right they would have clarified it to be a custom pipe and just given it a certain part number that you have to engrave or weld onto the pipe. I will definitely inquire on what to do. Changing the pipe wouldn't be my favorite solution as it costs a bunch of money and the cat was fitted with the front pipe and exhaust under the car, and if the front pipe flange does not sit in the OEM location the cat will need to be refit for any other pipe to work. It also usually doesn't need a brand name or something like that, but more something like a part number. Usually for exhaust parts, on silencers and cat units specifically, there is a badge that reads the certificate number that belongs to these exhaust parts under EU regulation. You get these numbers after you put a part or group of parts through the tedious testing according to EU vehicle legislation and they pass. You can find these "part numbers" on various parts throughout a EU vehicle. On windows, headlights, engine parts, seat belts and so on. All these parts have gone through standardized testing and acquired a so called ECE or EG Certificate that makes them legal to use by themselves in all countries that adhere to these standards. You can also not alter these parts in any way, if you do they become illegal. An example for stampings on an exterior lighting part, the people who need to know can find the documentation for this unit in a database. I do not know what all the standards and so on mean.
    • If that was the case I suppose you could call it "Mein's" brand....  ... I'll see myself out... 😅
