You can check for voltage to the motor inside the engine bay. Unplug the electricial connection and check it with one probe, and the other grounded. It is probably the motor if it gradually got slower then died. I replaced my motor last year and it wasn't too hard to do. I bought it at IPD for $95.

Right now I am in a different situation with my wipers and the relay. The wipers are totally dead and I have resoldiered the relay, still nothing. Hopefully replacing it will fix the situation.

I live across the river in Vancouver, WA and I can tell you it is a drag not to have wipers here.

Good luck,


Zack
