Default 66 Mustang Wiper motor

My wipers won't park. Its a two speed motor. I know I can get new motors (and even rebuilt motors) but on things like that, I'd rather fix it myself if possible.
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance!

the only way to find out if you open it up and find out what is wrong with it.

There is a micro switch inside the motor that regulates the parking of the wipers. You can certainly open the motor up to see if you can fix it but i have a feeling that parts will be a bit diffucult to find as most suppliers would rather sell you a new motor.

I figured as much. I'll probably yank it open this weekend.
Thanks all!

I think that 2 speed wiper motors are only available in remanufactured form with a core charge.
