807 Wipers

Does anyone else have a problem with their windscreen wipers (front and
rear) activating on their own?

As far as I know I don't have any kind of automatic wet sensors to
worry about 2.0 GLX Diesel 52 reg.

Some days it does it for ages, other days just occasionally, and some
days not at all.

It's getting very annoying!

That's not something I've seen, except when accompanied by the windows
going up and down and the mirrors folding in and out of their own accord
(which is solved by disconnecting the battery).

If you do have the sensor, it is a big circular patch in the centre of
the windscreen at the bottom - but the automatic stuff shouldn't work
unless you have manually wiped the windscreen once (to stop the car
trying to wipe when there is ice on the windscreen, I assume).

That just about sums up the 807 electricals. Mine has just spent a
month(!) at the local dealer after a couple of dozen previous trips with
electrical issues. It came back, supposedly all fixed, and less than a
week later had electrical problems again.

It's a software problem. You need to take it to your dealer to put on
the Diag to update the BSI. Hopefully you're still under warranty?
