Windsheild Wiper problem
on my way to dinner tonight there was a light rain so I went to turn my wipers on, and I got nothing. It was not a big deal as I always have Rain-X on my windsheild.
So when I get back to work, I start looking for the problem (I am at work so I only have a minute or 2) So I pop open the fuse box expecting to see a blown fuse, and it was fine.
So my question is, What else could be wrong? Blown motor? Switch isnt working? How would I know if it was either of these problems?
Thanks

Re: Windsheild Wiper problem (MBVette)
Turn the wiper switch in the on position and wiggle the harness plugs that plug into the wiper motor if the motor starts running you have a bad electrical connection . Gm has a printed circuit board in some of their wiper motors that have solder joint problems this can be repaired with a soldering iron and some patience good luck. :)
