Problems with windshield wipers on 2007 Peugeot 207 petrol engine: experience and solutions wanted
(Translated from German)
Summary of the thread
A 2007 Peugeot 207 owner is experiencing erratic windshield wiper behavior and suspects the rain/light sensor might be the cause. Another individual shared a similar experience with a different Peugeot model, where the issue was due to blistering under the gel pad of the windshield, which was fixed at a garage. The suggested solution is to have the sensor checked by a mechanic, as it could be a relatively inexpensive fix.

Hey, thanks for your answer! I currently have 18870 km on my Peugeot. I never had such problems with my windshield wipers before. I think I will have the sensor checked as you suggested. It's good to know that it wasn't that expensive for you to fix. Very helpful, thank you!

You're welcome, buddy! Given the mileage, your Peugeot 207 should actually still be in good condition. Then it really could be the sensor, although there are other possibilities. It never hurts to have a mechanic look over it. And don't worry, it probably won't be too expensive. On my Peugeot it only cost about 75 euros to replace the sensor, so more or less the same as repairing the blistering under the gel pad. I hope this helps you and I wish you the best of luck in fixing the problem! Ultimately, it's best to rely on the experts at the workshop. They know best what to do. Let us know how it goes. We all like to learn.

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2005 Peugeot 206 diesel, it seems I have a bit of experience with cars. My windshield wiper also showed such symptoms and I first suspected the rain-light sensor. But when I took it to the garage, they found that there was blistering under the gel pad of the windshield. They simply fixed it for 62 euros. To give you more specific details, can you share some information about your car? Such as mileage and if there have been similar problems before. Hope that helps!
