Hello everyone,
I just wanted to report that I got my wiper motor working again.  I took it 
apart and found that one of the brushes was stuck.  So I got a different brush 
from a local rebuild shop, filed it down to fit, soldered it on, cleaned 
everything up and presto, it works.  I think it works better now than it ever 
did since I owned the car!  So thanks to everyone who gave me advice and/or 
encouragement to try and tackle it myself.  Also to everyone who offered me a 
used working motor, thanks a ton but I won't need one now.  It's amazing what 
you can fix yourself if you invest some of your time and use some know-how from 
your friends!
Thanks everyone,
Matt Peterson
