wipers will not work

hi guys its started to rain and i noticed my wipers will not work. i recently installed a vats bypass but i doubt that would have anything to do with it. ive checked the fuse and its fine they just wont turn on at all.

It is more than likely the pulse board cracked or corroded solder joint or brush contact in the motor.

Re: wipers will not work

Have they worked after you did the VATS? If not then maybe when you were under there you pulled the plug apart at the steering column - unlikely but worth a try. Check fuse. Or buy another motor assembly. It is $70! Jesus
