Default windshield wiper, help!

the problem i'm having is on low speed, my wipers keep getting stuck. on high, they seem to work ok, but it's really annoying when it's barely raining and i have my wipers on high. Would replacing the wiper motors fix this? or something else i should check/change? let me know, thanks!

Check the wire connection on the wiper motor first before you try to replace to a motor!!

I have this same problem. Mine seems to arise more when you push the stick down for mist. It also seems to be worse the colder it is. If mine get stuck I just wiggle the stick around a little and they seem to be fine. What would wipers themselves have to do with it?

The wiper blade might be messed up that is why i new wipers would probably fix this but since it wasnt then its the motor

it may be the whole wiper assemably you know the WHOLE THING because i remember one of my friend that tried to bend his whole thing and broke one of the clips(whatever you call it, i dont know what it is called but i know its like where you screw it on to your car) on it and it went up half way n didnt go back down

Having the exact same problem, I feel it's electrical. There's some kind of short in the lever w/ the wiper controls.
