ONE Windshield wiper dead?

Dec 02, 2006 2 Replies

Hello: Any help or opinion appreciated.


98 Nissan Altima:

Drivers side windshield wiper just stopped working. The other works fine. Took off the bolt and found that the motor has stopped rotating. Could it be something other then the motor? Thanks again



They're both run from the same motor; what's probably going on is the linkage has fallen off underneath. If you take off the plastic under the wiper arms you'll probably find the clip or whatever is supposed to keep the linkage on has fallen off or broken.

the motor is fine, you have a problem with a piece of the linkage that connects the two to the wiper motor
