my wipers or widscreen washer wont work.

i've changed the stalk (for one without intermittent wiper control) and the red relay in the fuse box and still nothing.

any ideas?

did u put the earth on

steven botes

when water gets in the wiper motor , it settles in the bottom where a bearing sits.after a while , the bearing will fail and then the wiper rotor touches the stator
youll feel the motor gets very hot when operating
Found this on my first escort

are you popping fuses?
