Perhaps the small wheel in the wheelbox either has some teeth missing or worn
down. It is a bit of work to check it out but the nice thing about it, if this
is the case, turn the wheel 1/2 turn and you can likely use these for a few
years yet. This wheel does not turn a complete turn when the wipers are working.

Subject: Wiper Problems BJ7
Thanks very much for the responses and suggestions. The round piece with the
wire going into it on the wiper motor is not loose and leads me to believe that
may not be the issue. I took the wiper arms off the spindle and operated the
wiper switch. I found the spindles moved properly and parked as you would
expect. I then put the wiper arms back on and tried to operate once again. From
the drivers seat the wipers would sweep across to the right and not have the
power to return. If I assisted the wiper arms they would return and also park
it the switch were shut to off. Seems like not enough power to make the return
sweep? Any suggestions are most welcome and thanks in advance.
