Problem overview

Some Jaguar XF owners report experiencing persistent windshield wiper issues even after replacing the wiper motor. These problems may stem from a malfunctioning wiper switch, which can interfere with proper operation. Additionally, issues with the linkage arm have been noted as potential causes for wiper malfunctions. Owners are also advised to check the in-line fuse or relay associated with the intermittent wipe and flick wipe functions, as these components could be contributing to the problem. Furthermore, loose or chafed wiring from the main engine compartment fuse box to the wiper motor may affect performance. To diagnose electrical issues, some owners recommend performing voltage tests across various pin combinations while the wipers are operating. A comprehensive inspection of these factors is essential for identifying the root cause and facilitating repairs to resolve the windshield wiper issue.
