Default Windshield Wipers Stuck in Up Position

I haven't used my wipers in forever and when they checked them for inspection the other day they worked fine but stop in the up position. It's not a huge deal because I can just unplug them until next year but it would be nice if it were an easy fix.

Maybe a "post" in the tech section would get you more replies!

Your wiper motor may have gotten wet from the bladder bags being clogged. I had that problem. I took the apart and put it front of a fan for a few days. I haven't had a problem in almost a year now. Hope this helps.
