Wiper blades stoped working
So here's the story. I have a 2020 toyota supra and since there are many similarities with he z4 I thought I'd have luck on this forum, because the supra forums haven't been very helpful, or a bunch of bmw haters on there(go figure) that troll, and the dealers are clueless about this car.
My wipers stopped working recently and I've read it could be one of 4 things, blown fuse, relay, motor, wiper arms. My question is where is the wiper fuse located on the z4 and which fuse is it? I've checked in the manual and the diagram in the fusebox but nowhere does it specify which fuse is for the wipers. I don't want to take it into the dealership until I've ruled out a blown fuse which would cost me less than a dollar and a quick fix. I attached the diagram I found Thanks |

I did have a car once that used vacuum pressure to operate the wipers. Good luck! |

I ran into issues like this years ago when working on German cars. I had to go hunting with a multimeter and check every fuse individually. I fear you may have to do the same.

You should still have full warranty on the car? Dealership shouldn't charge you a dime.

Thank you, appreciate all your help. It's been 4 days of being trolled on supra forums with no help.
Just wanted to check the fuse before booking an appointment with the dealer |

Just in case you are wondering where that fuse box is because it isn’t where the instructions tell you if you are driving a RHD car, I have snipped my instructions for hard wiring a dashcam. This excerpt should help. Fuse 53 then! I looked for hours yesterday and still failed to find that

did you use the wipers to clear a lot of snow or ice ?
someone in this household stripped the motor by doing this on their 2019 5 series - lucky BMW replaced under warranty |

Its true that a few months ago you could see all info without login, but know you have to sign in.
