Disabling rear wiper on VW Golf VII?

    Is it possible / easy to temporarily disable the rear wiper on a VW Golf VII?. I would like to do this while a bike carrier is mounted etc. etc.?

    I presume the fuse can be removed once I identify the relevant one and its location, but I would imagine that there isn't a fuse dedicated exclusively to the rear wiper and obviously, I do not want another function disabled simultaneously?

    Many thanks for any help.

    Can you not take it off temporarily its just a nut under a cover seal,i have to do that each time I put the car in a brush wash after the wash mangled it to shreds the first time..

    Seems to be a single purpose fuse(F47) for the rear wiper motor . Pull it and see, but that looks to be a genuine vw document.

    Many thanks for that Interslice - it is an easier option than temporarily removing the wiper arm.
