It's snowing and my wipers stop working today. :( I check the fuses at terminal 1 and 24 and they look good. Anybody know if there is a relay or something else I can check? I'll check with multimeter when I have time but wondering if there is something simple and obvious I could check for now?

Looks like a relay under the rear seat is bad. Swapped relay towards passenger side and the wipers are working now. I have a spare relay but the connector 30 and 87 is switched around from BMW orginal relay. But I guess this doesn't matter since those two connectors either open or close to allow current through. Turned out to be something simple after all... :)

Yes, I did... :)

And this is my only car with dedicated snow tires. I would be lost in the snow without my E34.
