I just wanted to thank everyone for the help with my Nisan Tino wiper
problem. I followed Lee's advice and bridged pins 3 & 5 of the relay. The
wipers then worked! (Thaks a million, Lee!)

So I guess this points to the relay being at fault. Now I have what I
suspect is probably a silly question... If it works fine with the relay
pins jumped, why do I need a relay in there at all? Can I just leave it as
is, with the pins 3 & 5 bridged?

the realy is there bacuse teh actual switch cant handle te current. It
is if you like an 'amplifier'


Is there anything I can try to restore the relay? Are the contacts in there
clean-uppable?

Try taking it apart. If it comes apart they sure can be cleaned.

Or get one from a scrapper .

Or get a new one


Many thanks,

Phil K
