| Description of the problem | Driving in rain and wipers went slow like losing voltage or power then just stopped. I had this happen once before but when they seemed sluggish i just had mechanic replace the motor. The motor is less than 2 years old. I read about wiper motor issues but my vin doesn't seem to be on there. Not sure but hoping it can be added. Will take back to mechanic and see about transverser which are the arms under the cowl that move the wipers per the motor. If still having issue has to be wiper recall due to moisture right? Have replaced alternator already due to low voltage so it can't be that. Replaced batteries when i replace alternator. Everything else electrical working just fine. |
