Hi Richard and Alex,
Got the laptop apart and found that it doesn't have a filter. I'm guessing

You'll need to look at the wiring diagram to see how it all works together.
Not sure about the S123 but the S124 has a feature where the rear wiper

funky controller that does that.

I checked the no. 6 fuse during a period of gentle drizzle. Sadly, it was
intact. Remembering Dr. Booth's advice, however, I swapped it out anyway.
Voila! The wipers work. I have never seen a bad fuse before that looked
