s14 windshield wiper/ squirter problem

[shiftdrift06]

Okay, I am having problem with my wipers. They pretty much work when they feel like it. I thought it was the motor, but when I go pull the handle back on the wiper switch it doesn't squirt water either. So they pretty much go out both at the same time.

Where should i start looking for the problem? Besides the wiper switch, is there any relays or control boxes anywhere?

Mine does not squirt sometimes.. Do you wax your car? if so, try sticking a needle down the hole where the water comes out. Sometimes wax gets into the hole and clogs it up.

Umm, they won't work if the lines are frozen . Currently, mine don't work in the morning, but do in the afternoon and when the car has been running a while. They sell washer fluid that doesn't freeze, but I am still using what I had left over from when I was still living in Florida.

I thought my washers were dirty/clogged so i bought new one. I confirmed they work because sometimes it does squirt when the wipers wanna work. They work and dont work in conjunction.

I have made somewhat of a process, today I have my wipers in on posistion, and when I jerk the steering slighly to the left and right and shake the car. They would work.

So I am guessing I have loose wire somewhere?? Any ideas?

Also, I am from southern Texas, we had like 3-4 hours of snow this winter for the first time in like 4-5 years lol
