Where is the fuse for the Magotan wiper?

The fuse for the Magotan wiper is located on the left side of the engine compartment. Open the hood, and you will find a box on the right side—the fuse is inside. Below are some precautions for using the wiper: 1. When using the wiper to remove dust from the windshield on sunny days, always spray windshield washer fluid and avoid dry wiping. 2. If there are stubborn or hard contaminants on the glass, clean them manually. These can easily damage the wiper blade, leading to ineffective wiping and potential harm to the wiper motor. 3. When lifting the wiper blade during car washing or routine cleaning, hold the 'backbone' of the wiper blade and gently return it—do not let it snap back abruptly. 4. In winter, use an ice scraper to clear ice from the windshield before using the wiper to avoid putting extra strain on it.
As a seasoned driver with over ten years of experience, I often encounter issues with windshield wipers, especially when they suddenly stop working during rainy days—it can be quite nerve-wracking. Take the Volkswagen Magotan for example: its wiper fuse is generally located on the driver's side. Once seated, look near your left knee, just below the steering wheel, where you'll find a small fuse box cover. Open it, and you’ll see various fuses arranged inside. Typically, the wiper fuse is labeled SC or a similar code—consulting the owner’s manual is the most accurate way to confirm. In my own Magotan, I found it last year at the SC15 position as indicated in the manual. If the wipers aren’t moving, it might not just be a fuse issue; it could also be due to motor overload or a short circuit caused by damp wiring. In such cases, avoid forcing the wipers to operate to prevent further damage. When replacing the fuse, use needle-nose pliers for gentle handling, and test the functionality afterward. Regularly cleaning the wiper system and roof drainage holes during maintenance can help prevent such minor hassles.
Hey, as an ordinary car owner who loves tinkering with my car, I always feel a sense of accomplishment when I fix small things myself. The location of the fuse for the Magotan's wipers, I remember, is in the fuse box near the driver's knee inside the car—just open the driver's door and lean in, and you'll see a small black plastic cover. Pry it open, and there are many fuses inside. The wiper fuse is usually in the S area or marked with something like F18. The car manual will have a detailed diagram, for example, in my car, it's labeled as SC16. Remember to remove the car key and cut off the power when looking for the fuse to stay safe, otherwise, you might get an electric shock or damage the equipment. Wipers not moving often happens because the fuse is blown, which could be due to a faulty wiper motor or branches blocking the glass groove. Last time I replaced it with a new 15A fuse, and the wipers worked fine again. Normally, when driving, be careful not to overload the wiper system, like not forcing it to work on icy days. Proper maintenance like this makes it less likely to break.
