Remove Windshield To Prevent Wet Visibility Problem
See if your wiper switch is getting voltage in.
If it isnt getting voltage in, trace it back to the fuse.
If it is getting voltage in, see if it puts out voltage when you cycle the switch.
If it puts out voltage when you cycle it see if its making it to the wiper motor.

Re: wiper motor issue, HELP
I know this doesn't deal with the problem from the original post but while we are on the subject of wiper motors, the washer pump is built in to the pump is it not? My wipers work but when I try to wash the windshield all I get is the wipers. It sounds like it wants to but I get nothing. Could the lines just be clogged? The car is 25 years old after all and the previous owner wasn't driving it much it just sat in his garage most of the time

Re: wiper motor issue, HELP
did the new motor come with the electronic board inside of it? I had this issue a while back and none of the replacement motors included the circuit board.

Yes of course there is fluid in the tank, that was the first thing I checked. It is dark outside now but I will try that tomorrow and see if I get anywhere. Thanks
