Why is the wiper of Audi A6 not moving?
2 Answers
Audi A6 wiper not moving reasons are as follows: Check the wiper blade: If you usually do not pay attention to the maintenance of the car wiper blade, and find that it is severely damaged on a rainy day and cannot work properly, you can simply replace the wiper blade in time. Check the wiper motor: After opening the car hood, you can see the wiper motor. You can touch the wiper motor with your hand. If it feels hot, it means there is an internal short circuit in the motor, and replacing the motor can solve the problem. Check the wiper linkage: There are many connection points in the wiper linkage. If there are problems in these places, the wiper will not work properly. You can judge whether it is a linkage failure by observing the operation of the wiper. Check the wiper fuse: To protect the car circuit, each electrical device is equipped with a fuse. If the wiper does not work, you can check whether the wiper fuse is blown. You can use the spare fuse in the car to replace the blown fuse.
Last time, the wipers on my Audi A6 suddenly stopped working, forcing me to pull over in heavy rain—it was really scary. It might have been a blown fuse, which is located in the fuse box under the steering wheel. I needed to check it first and replace it with one of the same amperage. If that didn’t work, the wiper motor itself could have been jammed or worn out. Audi’s electronic systems are complex and prone to minor issues. There was also a chance the linkage was rusted, so I tried manually shaking it to see if it would loosen. Safety first—never force it to work on the road. I immediately called a tow truck to take it to the dealership. They checked and confirmed it was a motor failure, recommending a wiper system inspection every six months and clearing debris to prevent jams. Now, I always carry spare fuses in my car for emergencies.
