Mercedes CLA diesel wiper malfunction

Has anyone else had problems with the windshield wipers on a 2023 Mercedes CLA diesel? My car has about 289570 km on it, and the wipers just stopped working. The stalk still works for the turn signals and cruise control. The car's computer shows an error, and I'm thinking it might be a bad cable or plug on the wiper switch. The shop quoted me 95€ to fix it. Any thoughts?

That's odd. The turn signal and cruise control working makes it seem less like the whole stalk failed. Did you check the wiper fuse? Could be something simple before you dig into the wiring.

Thanks for the quick reply. I didn't think about the fuse since the turn signals still work. Do you know which fuse is for the wipers? I don't have the fuse diagram handy.

I'm not positive about the exact spot on your CLA, but the fuse box is usually under the hood or in the driver's footwell. The diagram should be printed on the fuse box cover or in your owner's manual. If it's not a blown fuse, then it's probably a bad wiper switch or wiring like you thought. You should probably get it checked out by a professional.

Thanks. I found the fuse diagram and a blown fuse for the wiper motor. I replaced the fuse, and the wipers work now. I appreciate the help fixing this quickly.
