Without thinking I switched them on when the winscreen was frozen. Now they don't work at all. Is this likely to be permanent damage to the motor or is there some sort of cut-out which needs to be reset?

One word - fuse! Check the fusebox mounted below the dash and forward of the gearlever.

Presumably you've checked the fuse?

If its not the fuse check the nuts that hold the wiper arms on, sometimes if the fuse does not blow the power in the motor is enough to loosen off these nuts. Obviously if you can't here the motor moving at all then go for the fuse GGJ
blimey, I was about to post exactly the same question!
thanks for the help, this is an incredible group - answering question BEFORE they get asked!

There is a fuse, which is probably blown. JD

I did this but got away with it. stupid, really, I *knew* the wipers would be stuck to the screen. and then did the same thing on the car, which pulled one of the wiper rubbers off. Luckily, it went back on again.
Thanks. It was the fuse.
