Default Rear wiper not owrking, fuse? or motor??

Hi there

the rear wiper does not work on my 04 focus tdci sport and I was wondering is there a fuse for it? If so where?

If I check that then would look on flea bay for a replacement motor.

Any advice is welcomed guys.

Steve

there is a fuse box behind the glove box but it is possibly the motor. the motor has plastic gears so when they start stucking with rust it will start slipping. Both mine and my bro had this problem when we bought them but I managed to save mine by taking it apart and cleaned the inside and greased again while my bros didn't making due it was slipping more than mine so he need to buy it!!!!

Thanks for that and my apologizes for the terrible spelling in the title lol...... So how do I remove the glove box to get to them? And how do I know which fuse it is?

Also can I download a manual or something for the car??

to remove the glove box you need to press slightly the glove box from the side to overstep the stopper and it would leen down, than you would have the fuse box infront of you. remove the cover and there will be all the signs to show you what every fuse is for. If you are not familiar with the signs than check the car manual as it would tell you all the signs what they rapresent.
