2 Answers
The reasons for the continuous movement of the rear wiper on the Qoros 5 are: 1. Circuit failure; 2. Damage to the combination switch. Taking the 2019 Qoros 5 as an example, it is a compact SUV with body dimensions of: length 4600mm, width 1869mm, height 1658mm, wheelbase of 2710mm, and a curb weight of 1580kg. The 2019 Qoros 5 features a front suspension of MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension of multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.6L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 197PS, maximum power of 145kW, maximum torque of 290Nm, and is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving the Qoros 5 for several years, and the rear wiper keeps moving. Usually, it's a problem with the switch or relay. If the contacts inside the switch get stuck or fused, the power won't cut off. A faulty relay with fused contacts can also cause continuous power supply. It could also be a short circuit in the wiring, where aged or damaged wires touch the metal frame of the car. If water gets into the motor and causes corrosion, it might also keep running. Try toggling the wiper switch back and forth a few times to see if it resets. If that doesn't work, don't force it—turn off the engine and remove the key immediately to avoid draining the battery and affecting startup. A small replacement part at the repair shop will cost just a few dozen yuan. Avoid driving until it's fixed to prevent safety risks. Remember to maintain the wiper system regularly and use it sparingly in dusty areas.
