R-class windshield wipers not working
Hi all,
62k miles and first time our 2006 R500 has ever had front windshield wiper issues. Regardless of what settings, wipers don't move. The washer does work and it sprays, but still no wipers. Is there a setting or obviously button that I'm missing? Pls advise if anyone has ever had similar experience.

Check if the hood is properly closed - try and open and close it.
As soon as the hood is a bit open (still secured) the wipers won't work

Hi guys - thx for input.
Checked all the fuses and they were fine, and the hood was closed.
Dropped car off at MB dealer...covered by CPO.
Apparently the wiper "stalk" is broken.
Glad it's covered, but disappointed that it broke for 4 yrs old.
