Wipers engaging traction control

    Have a 2005 Seat Leon and over the past few months it's developed a fault.
    When I turn the wipers on it engages the traction control. Every time the wipers go the car slips and after a few wipes the TC light turns on.
    Has been intermittent but for the past week it won't go away.

    Any idea what could cause this, I did read one forum that said it could be wiper motor but wondered if anyone else experienced the same problem and knows a solution.

    Get an auto electrition to check it out.

    Could be a simple fix such asloose connection or cables have spliced or been cut and are touching.

    Could be a module also.

    My guess is water has got in under your wipers and is running down onto the traction when when wipers turn.
    I have being known to solve afew problems
