is the motor making noise? if not turn it on and whack the green or brown box that is near the wiper motor. that is the wiper amp and its an item that will cause the motor to not work.

passenger side of the firewall(engine compartment). you cant miss it. the wiring harness goes through right in the same area.

heh heh, yeah.

you want to tap it a little with the wiper switch on. if the wipers jump or something then you know where the problem is.
