C5 Windshield Wipers Failure

Windshield wipers on my 2014 Citroen C5 gasoline just died. I scanned it and got an error code. Any ideas?

Summary of the thread

The windshield wipers on a 2014 Citroen C5 have stopped working, and a diagnostic scan revealed an error code. A potential cause could be a faulty wiring harness or plug connections near the wiper switch and turn signal. A similar issue was resolved by cleaning and re-seating a bad connection, suggesting that professional inspection and repair might be necessary.

I had a similar problem with my C5, but it wasn't the rain sensor. Have you checked the wiring harness and plug connections near the wiper switch and turn signal? That's where my issue was.

Wiring harness, huh? I'm no mechanic, but I can poke around a bit. Was it visibly damaged, or did you need a multimeter to figure it out?

I didn't see anything obvious, and honestly, electrics aren't my strong suit. I took it to a workshop. They found a bad connection, and cleaned and re-seated it. The diagnosis said "Cable or plug connection of the component defective". All sorted now!

Cheers! Sounds like I'm heading to the shop too. They reckon about 95€ to fix it. Thanks for confirming I'm not going crazy.
