Peugeot 1007 wiper failure

My 2008 Peugeot 1007, gasoline engine, has a wiper issue. The windshield wipers are completely dead. Diagnostics show an error code, and I suspect a faulty cable or plug connection. I've checked the fuses already. Has anyone seen anything similar?

Sounds frustrating. I had a similar problem with my old Opel Corsa. The wipers would intermittently stop working, and then start again. It turned out to be a bad connection in the wiring harness near the motor. Did you check the wiring harness for corrosion or damage?

Thanks. Where exactly was the bad connection on your Corsa? Was it visibly corroded, or did you have to test the wires individually?

On the Corsa, it was right where the harness plugged into the wiper motor itself. I could see some green corrosion on the connector pins. Tracing wiring issues can be a pain. If you're not comfortable with electrical testing, it might be worth taking it to a workshop.

Thanks. I'll check the connector pins as you suggested. I've booked it in for a diagnostic at a local workshop anyway. They quoted around 95€ for the repair, so hopefully, it's a quick fix.
