2nd time happening. I move the wiper lever and no movement.
Last time I pulled the steering wheel, unplugged all 3 connectors, re connected and everything worked. I figured the wiper plug came lose, so I added some duct tape. Connector to connector and they wiped. Damn wipers stopped again tonight. What am i missing? |

Maybe you have the switch mis-wired. I know that a lot of the replacement wiper switches have to have the plastic sleeve removed from the wires, and the one from the old switch installed to fit in the column. So maybe you swapped two wires when you did that?
