I posted a thank you before but I was unsure if you saw it. Your description of my wiper motor problem was dead on. It's like you were looking inside it before I even opened it. I was really thrown off when the rebuilt motor I purchased at Advance had the same problem (I got a refund). I guess, like you said, they just changed the brushes and didn't check the magnets. By the way, where could I get brushes if I needed them? Thank again - big time.
