Hi All,
I am new to BMW's. I purchased a 1995 518i (E34) a few weeks back and keep having problems with the electrics.
1.
The latest one is with the wiper speed, the fast and intermittent speeds are fine but slow has stopped working. It just wipes once then stops (having said that perhaps its intermittent; will need to check).
2.
A week or so back I noticed a continual whirring noise when the headlights where on, this turned out to be the headlight alignment motors, which I have now disconnected. Probably caused by a stuck relay! but which one?
3.
Ever since I purchased the vehicle I have been having intermittent problems with the central locking on the rear doors. Most days one or both of these will not operate. However on cold damp days they work fine.
Any help with the above problems would be much appreciated.
