Product Information
A rain sensor is an electronic device typically mounted on the windshield behind the rearview mirror that detects moisture levels on the glass. It automatically activates and adjusts the speed of the windshield wipers based on rainfall intensity, improving visibility and driver convenience. By responding in real-time to changing weather conditions, the rain sensor enhances safety and reduces the need for manual wiper control.
Rain Sensor Failure Symptoms- Wipers not activating automatically, even when rain is present.
- Erratic or overly sensitive wiper operation, caused by faulty sensor readings.
- Warning light or diagnostic trouble code, indicating a malfunction in the sensor system.
About Genuine VW
The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VW” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VW, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VW Dealership network.
You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VW are not necessarily manufactured by VW. No cause for concern, as VW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VW logo.
Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming directly from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
