When our 53 plate C3 wipers and washers stopped working suddenly I read about about resetting the Comms2000, tried a couple of different resets, checked out all fuses removed and checked wiper mechanism/motor, still not fixed until I tried this reset method which may be of help to other members. Remove storage unit under steering column, remove lower column cowl 2x 20 torque screws. 1, Ignition on, 2, Disconnect grey plug from back of Comms unit. 3, Wait 3-5 seconds lights to come on? 4, Switch ignition off and wait 2 minutes. 5, Reconnect grey plug. 6, Switch ignition on. 7, Switch ignition off. 8, Put wiper stalk to auto or intermittent position. 9, Put wiper stalk to off position. 10, Allow BSI to shut down a minimum of 2 minutes. This procedure worked for me, Refitting the lower column cowl can be a little tricky so warm it with heat gun gently from the inside making it a little more flexible and fitting a little easier. Hope this helps other C2, C3, Berlingo and Picasso.

I`might be late in replying to the thread but it may help others I had the same problem with my wifes C3. Took off the strips, cleaned the muck from strips and roof, applied silicone sealant 6 inches to each end of the strips replaced and put masking tape to each end to hold in place over night. Still OK 12 months later.
