Polo 1.2 rear wiper/heater problem Sign In

I recently bought a 2002 Polo 1.2 .The rear window wiper and screen heater will not work.The related fuses are OK so it may be the relays as continuity check shows motor and heater appear OK.How do I recognize which relay refers to to motor and heater supply respectively and once I know can I safely check each relay ,if I take them out and check for a click when connecting to a 12v dc supply

wladek; Never heard of a Polo, but I would think that the wiper and the screen heater would be two, seperate, circuits. The screen heater is usually a high amp circuit. Check to see if you are getting voltage to both circuits at the wiper motor and the screen heater connector. Sorry, but I have no way of pulling up a wiring diagram for you.

Thank you but I still seeking the information as to how from left to right the three relays in the compartment under the dashboard relate

Don't mean to sound cynical, but what does it matter how they relate? Relay 1: "Hi, relay two. How ya' doin'" Relay 2:
Hi, relay 1, how's you doin'?" Have you checked what I suggested? Relays work, or not. You have power and earth, or not. Yes, you could have a faulty relay, but....
