Wiper malfunction
Hi all,
I have an 03 E500 and I was wondering if anyone else had an issue with the wiper's stop working when you signal for a left turn? I can tap the turning signal to get the 3 blinks and it wont turn off, it's just when i push it down all the way for a left turn that it stops. When i complete the turn and the turn signal goes back into the middle, the wipers will turn back on as if i just switched them on that second. When i signal for a right turn it's fine. Anyone else had this problem?
Thanks!

I have not had the same problem but wipers have stopped operating on my W211 too. Playing with different speed setting made it recover.
I did ask myself some time ago if anyone had had similar issues but I don't think I got replies. I guess this would not be very common.
I'm assuming it must be an issue with the stalk switch contacts.
