Abstract
A windscreen wiper device and a method for wiping windscreens, including at least one motor whose direction of rotation can be altered, at least one wiper which is coupled to the motor and which moves back and forth between two reversing positions, a control device which switches the motor by means of switching signals and operating signals which are conveyed to the control device. The control device determines the switching signals from the operating signals to determine the reversing positions of the wiper. The degree of wetness of the windscreen surface is conveyed to the control mechanism and used as an operating signal.
