Default windshield wipers

Hey guys,

my windshield wipers/spray nozzles do not work but they worked 2 weeks ago. so far i have checked the motor and the ground is good and when you run power from the battery to it the motor works so i am assuming the motor is fine. i also checked the fuse and that seems to be fine its not blown. I dont know where to search next my radio also has no power dont know if that has anything related to this problem. any ideas of what to look at next? this is my 3rd electrical problem I've had in the first 2 weeks of owning the car and its becoming very frustrating.


thanks for any input

Take a needle and poke the holes of the sprayers, they might just be clogged.

yes ive checked that. but there is no power to the wipers from the harness unless you run a power and ground cable right to the wiper motor.. thats the main issue nor does the radio work, so i am assuming the wiper control module or some wiring somewher has something to do with this. although the wiper control module would not affect the radio.

unless they share a common ground strap that someone did not reconnect after preforming a repair or maintenance job on the car.
