Rear Wiper Issue

The rear wiper on the X no longer works. I checked that it's not the common loose nut issue. The Windshield water sprays on the back so, i don't think it's the burn chip issue (I think the burnt chip on the rear wiper motor cause the water to spray continously) Front wipers works fine. I have unplugged and plugged the rear wiper and still no luck... anything else you guys think i should try?

I only found a wiper fuse, which seems like it is for the front or both front and rear wiper motor share the same. I'm not sure...

Pull it out and look at it. Put it back in. You never know.

How old is your battery??? That could be causing all your problems. lol

In all seriousness, check the fuse. If the fuse is good, open the panel to the wiper motor and check the motor for continuity.

I was talking about the fuse.

Ahahha. And I just saw an episode where he finds out about Internet porn, and develops a jacked up arm. Lol.

Have you tried applying voltage right to the motor?
