Ok, yesterday it rained a little while I was driving, and I used the mist function to clear the window. I did this a few times, and the last time, the wipers got stuck in the up position.

As far as I can tell, I hear the motor working, and the wipers are still connected to each other b/c when you move one, the other moves. Anyone have any idea what to look for? I am going to take it apart in a little while. The wipers will not work when you put them on High, low, or intermittent.

TIA

 

so after taking a look at it, the main linkage arm that attaches to the motor came off. How can I put it back on w/o having to buy a new motor? thanks

 

*sigh* this is a real tough one, i dont think there are many options here, your only alternative seems to be to try to mend it together by welding? i rlly dont know much about this but try to get sum1 to take a look at it, get a few opinions and the favorable choice is the 1 u should go with i guess, cuz a new motor for sumthing small like that is gunna cost u time AND money mostly

 

On mine the linkage attaches to the motor with a nut and washer.The linkage should have a hole with two flats.If this is the case you can take the motor out and try to find a nut and washer that fits.

ok so i got a part from the dealer. it is the shorter linkage bar with the clips built in. hopefully this works

 

the old one had broken plastic cup on it. Put the new one in and it works
