im down to the last few problems with my car (and now a firend's car) neither of our rear wipers work. i haven't checked his as in depth as mine but both our rear washers work. im guessing it's the same problem. my wiper doens't move or make any noise (that i can hear). i put a vom on the rear plug that goes into the motor and get 12v when i flip the switch. i took the motor off and put 12v to it and it turnes. but when i put the 2 together it doens't work. i tried cleaning the contacts but it didn't help. anyone have any other ideas?

I thought they were there for looks. Is it supposed to do something??? I've never even tried mine to see if it works.

when i first got my n/a the wiper didn't work...then i replaced it with a spare motor from the junkyard...worked for about a month...then crapped out...didn't bother with it after then https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

this just came up the other day, in gridlocked Japan rear

wipers on hatch backs are a must-have.
