i have a nova 1.2 merit and ever since i fitted a smooth boot my battery has been going dead, could this have something to do with removing the wiper and the water swoosher thingy because the wire for the wiper is just left hanging and the tube for the water thingy still works but it leaking into the car, is there any way i can turn this off? every time i want to use my car i have to jump it so its getting really annoyin!

Well tape up the bare wires and put a knot in the washer pipe. Ain't rocket science! Then you can see if these were causing your problem....


.....and if there is no bulb, then it won't be the light, as the circuit is not complete.
