Default Cooper S Window Wipers

Hi

I am having a problem with my window wipers. They just cut out every now and then, and they only way to get them to work again is to turn the engine off and back on again.

Please can someone help me to get this problem fixed?

Thanks

Some useful tips on sorting various MINI wiper problems in this thread linked below:

A common fault and an easy check to make is for a bad earth connection from the motor which is rubber mounted. Many owners are advised by garages that they need a new expensive wiper motor, when simply attaching a new earth wire from the motor to the body of the car will fix the problem.
