My windshield was replaced and now my rainsense doesn't

Would a "bad" windshield cause the intermittent to not work as well?

I had a new windshield put in and it resolved the issue. I guess the original one they put in was defective, in that where the rainsense was there wasn't a view point for the rainsense to see out of in order to work. I don't believe they put in OEM.

This is Mississippi the problem with the rain sensor is the bracket made to the windshield is too thick, So the rain sensor cannot detect rain on the surface of the windshield you do not need an OEM part for it to work
