Default Windshield wiper help....

I know this question a a little less "tech" than most would want see on here, but I'm sure somebody knows.

My wipers and washer fluid pump have quit working. Turned them on, they went halfway then stopped. I checked the fuse under the dash, but it's fine. Is there a relay or a fuse under the hood I should check? Could the motor have gone bad? I'm not sure if the wipers and the fluid pump use the same motor or not. Maybe it's the switch? Anybody have any ideas?

If both the wipers, and the fluid jets aren't working, I'd check the combo switch. I've had a few go on me before.

That would be the actual stalk switch, right? Guess I'll head to the junkyard....

Because you aren't cool. Your tilt steering column probably died along with them right?

Get that combo switch checked out and get back to us.

Maybe it'll fix my problem, too.

Yeah, to get back OT, it is. They're easy to switch out at the column, and have a tendancy to die after a few years.
