Default '08 Convertible wiper problem

Just stopped working, got out manual, looked at fuse box, checked #4,41,42,45 to be sure they were tight. Still don't work. Where do I go from here, short of dealer? Thanks. Roy

Thanks heaps for IMMEDIATE response. I was trying to save a day sitting in the lounge. But honestly, I figured that is what was needed.

You could try disconnecting your battery for 10 minutes or so and then hooking it back up. That fixed my cruise control that magically stopped working. Just a suggestion. Just remember to re-index your windows after re-connecting the battery.

Have you checked the associated relays? Swap them one at a time with the rear defrost or low beam relay (40, 47).
