Hey there, YouTube fam! 👋 In today's video, I'm tackling a sensor issue with our Land Rover Discovery 4 LR4: The automatic windshield wiper system isn't functioning! 😖
I dove straight into various forums to uncover potential causes. During my research, several possibilities emerged, like the gel pad becoming worn over time, windshield misfitting, or a faulty sensor.
Opting for the most cost-effective solution at €16, I ordered a new gel pad on eBay and swapped it out in this video. I'll walk you through dismantling the rearview mirror and rain sensor yourself, highlighting key points to keep in mind.
Join me in this video to see if the effort paid off and if we achieved the desired results.
Wishing you all an awesome Sunday,
Peter
