02 1.4 Front wiper failure - poormansfoor
Coming home tonight - quite a bit of rain so the wipers were going through their paces - fast / slow / intermittent.
Then when the rain had stopped slipped them on again to clear some spray and nothing.
Probably a daft question but presumably the motor has gone - if so is it an easy job for a DIY merchant. Or could it be something else like a fuse?
Thanks

Checked the fuse - and its not that.
Any views on changing the motor - would be much appreciated

02 1.4 Front wiper failure - Javalin
is there power to the motor? Could be relay or a switch on the dash stalk. Otherwise sounds like the motor is a good plan.
