Ran another BMS reset, cleared the archive codes. wipers now work, stop start reports to be online.

Happy Mrs.

Edit: it's also worth noting that even with a dead BMS sensor, the main battery does seem to charge and maintain charge via alternator regulation .. good to know.
Thank you so much for documenting this,we have had 2 different inde garages not know/misinform about the problem and today I disconnected the BMS sensor and now the wipers work again, so I think we have found the solution.

Was booked in at the main Volvo dealer near me - £165 per hour!!!
