Rain sensors

I think I may have a problem (not another one!), the other day we drove through a pretty heavy rainshower. Our SE is supposed to have rain sensors on it, so it has been set on the stalk for them to come on. Anyway they didn't Sad

Any ideas or is it another trip to my friendly (they really are!) dealership?

The stalk needs to be in the intermittent wipe position, 1 click upwards. The rain sensor is infront of the rearview mirror, spray some water on it and it should activate the wipers, if not then it does look like you have a problem

The variable speed on the intermitent setting also makes a big difference to the sensitivity of the rain sensors.

Oh joyous day!!!

What a muppet, I've been trying it in the Off position, completely forgot that the intermittent is the rain sensor setting!

As soon as I sprayed the smallest amount on the screen, hey presto!

Thanks!!!!!
