Rear Wiper stuck on MkV GTi

Sorry, I wasn't clear. The rear wiper stays on when the ignition is on, and I have tried switching the ignition off with the rear wiper switched on, then with the wiper switched off, then flicking the wiper switch with the ignition on, then off, but to no avail.

I think these are the usual tricks with the dodgy electrics on the MkV, but it hasn't helped.

It's quite annoying I can tell you, and in the dry, you look like a right idiot.

There was a similar issue with model year 2006 and younger cars whereby the wiper started by itself upon starting the car. The problem was corrected by turning the wiper on and off.

The fix for this was a new wiper motor which was covered under warranty.

Potentially yours could be something slightly different as it won't turn off at all.
