408 Wiper switch frozen 2 messages
My wiper switch seems frozen/stuck. It looks like it rotates 2 clicks to operate two-speed wipers but it will not budge either direction. Does it also act as washer switch? It will not push in or pull

408 front seats: should backrest lock in upright position? 5 messages
