Subject:      Fuse Inquiry/Strange Wipers
Content-Type: text/html

<html><P>I changed all of my fuses. Seems like my dash is just a bit brighter or I'm imagining it (both lights are new in the dash [for rpms and mph] and were in before the fuse change). Around the same time frame I also noticed the nuts holding on my wipers were rusty, so I sprayed some WD 40 on them.</P>
<P>So last night, it wasn't raining, but I accidently turned on my wipers and they started flopping around like dead fish hitting the windshield. Okay, I know they might be lose so I took them off and the right side wiper (which at the end of the flopping was completely non-moving) didn't seem loose, it was hard to pull off. </P>
<P>So my question is, can WD 40 slip past the body and the metal part the wipers attach to and wreak havoc on your wiper motor and/or connections???????</P>
<P>Also, I have a 20 amp fuse on the wiper switch, and a 10 amp fuse on the wiper (front) motor. Are these correct? There aren't any indications in my vanagon for what the fuses ought to be. </P>
