Why is the Landwind X7 wiper not working?

The reasons why the wiper is not working may be as follows: 1. Fuse blown: The wiper may not work because the fuse (to prevent circuit overload) is blown, causing the wiper to malfunction. In this case, you need to open the fuse box and check whether the corresponding fuse (refer to the manual on the cover) is blown. If it is, simply replace it, but remember to turn off all the car's electrical switches before replacement. 2. Motor burned out: The probability of motor burnout is actually very low, but it may also be due to quality control issues. To determine this, turn the car's ignition switch to the power-on state, open the front hood, and activate the wiper. If it's not broken, you can hear the sound of the motor running, and the sound is quite obvious. If there is no sound and a slight burnt smell, it is likely that the motor is damaged.
As someone who often helps friends with car repairs, when encountering windshield wipers that won't move, I always start with the simplest checks: A blown fuse is the most common issue - look for the "WIPER" labeled fuse in the car's fuse box and try replacing it. If that doesn't work, check if the motor is aging or stuck by gently shaking the wiper arm to test its flexibility. Poor contact at the switch terminals may also block signals. The linkage mechanism can seize up due to rust or ice buildup. A faulty control module can cause circuit failure. Never delay addressing wiper issues during rain - if wipers stop working, immediately pull over safely, turn on hazard lights, and avoid driving with impaired visibility. I recommend keeping spare fuses handy. If the problem persists, seek professional repair immediately - safety always comes first.
Last winter, my Landwind X7 wipers also stopped working. The first thing I checked was the fuse, located in the small compartment under the steering wheel. If the fuse is fine, then listen for the sound of the wiper motor running. No sound indicates a faulty motor or a broken circuit. A stuck or unresponsive switch button can also be a cause. If your wipers fail while driving in the rain, don’t panic. Reduce your speed and use the air conditioning to defog the windows for better visibility, then find a safe place to pull over and address the issue. Simple maintenance like regularly cleaning the wiper blades and applying lubricant can prevent problems, saving you repair costs and time.
Car owners often face the headache of wiper failure. When encountering non-functional wipers, my first step is to check if the wiper switch is in the correct position. If there's still no response, I then inspect whether the fuse is blown. A burnt-out motor or a stuck linkage are common root causes. Driving with impaired visibility in rainy conditions is dangerous, so I immediately slow down, pull over safely, turn on hazard lights to alert following vehicles, and contact a tow truck or professional assistance. It's a good habit to inspect the wiper system annually to ensure safe driving in rainy weather.
