Wind shield wipers

Holy Sweet mother of Effing Jesus.

How can my wind screen wipers have worked yesterday and today they're as dead as a Saddam?
How is this possible? And does anyone know how to fix them?

Got any twine?

Tie a piece off to each blade, and tie the blades together also.

Run one end through your left window, and run the other through the right window.

Now, when you pull on one string, wipers go up, pull the other way and wipers go down.

Repeat.

Off you go.

P-

this happened to me also. its probably your wiper motor. they are not hard to replace in most models. you could probably get a used on from a junkyard.

hope it helps

What sort of a god-damned third world country am I living in?
There's not even a bloody 24 hour garage!!!
This is truly pathetic.

and you lot are as useful as a sack full of willies.

Cut a potato in half and wipe it over the screen; it'll clear any water that hits the screen.

Well that's what matey down the pub reckons anyway. 😀

Did you check if a fuze was out? It's a good possiblity. You said it was working one day and not the next. That's the first thing to check. It would be under the dash or in the engine compartment and there is a key as to which is which imprinted on the fuze box lid usually.

That's some good advice, but I'd prefer to see him driving down the road holding 2 strings.
