Peugeot 408 Windshield Wipers Not Working

I'm experiencing an issue with my 2015 Peugeot 408 diesel. The windshield wipers have stopped working. Diagnostic tools show an error. I suspect a defective cable or plug connection. Has anyone encountered something similar?

I have a 408 as well, and I had a similar problem with my car wipers some time ago. Did you check the wiring harness near the steering column? Sometimes they can get loose or damaged. Could you give more details on what error code you're seeing?

I did inspect the wiring harness, but found nothing obvious. Unfortunately, I don't have the exact error code. Was your issue resolved by addressing the wiring, or was there another problem?

I tried fiddling with the connections myself, but ultimately, I took it to a workshop. They identified a faulty wiper switch and some corrosion on the connector. It wasn't a huge job for them. I'd recommend getting it properly diagnosed.

Your experience confirms my suspicions. I'll take it to a workshop for a detailed inspection and repair. The estimated cost is around 95€, which seems reasonable. Thanks again!
