Lexus LC Wiper Failure

Hi, I'm having a strange issue with my 2019 Lexus LC hybrid. My windshield wipers have suddenly stopped working altogether! I've checked the fuses, and they seem fine. The car is showing an error code related to the wiper system. I've tried turning the car off and on again, like you do with computers, but no luck. Has anyone experienced anything similar with their LC? I'm a bit lost and hoping it's not a major repair.

Hey there! I had a similar problem with my LC – though it was a while back, so I'm struggling to remember the exact details. I remember my wipers just suddenly quit. Did you notice any other electrical issues around the same time, like with the turn signals or cruise control? For me, the rain sensor also gave a strange reading.

Thanks for the quick response! Now that you mention it, the cruise control did act a little strangely yesterday, cutting out for a second or two. The turn signals and rain sensor seem normal, though. What was the eventual fix for your car? Was it something simple, or did it require a trip to the shop?

Okay, the cruise control thing is ringing a bell now. For me, it turned out to be a faulty connection – either a cable or a plug – related to the wiper motor circuit. I couldn't fix it myself; it was too fiddly. I'd recommend taking it to a workshop. They should be able to diagnose it pretty quickly, and it shouldn't cost too much. I think my bill was around 100€.

Great, thank you so much for the information! I will take it to my local mechanic and mention the cable or plug connection issue and the cruise control problem. Hopefully, it will be a quick and relatively inexpensive fix like yours, around 95€. Thanks again for your help!
