Take it to a qualified mechanic He has to take the entire lift gate apart to find out Before taking it to a mechanic, do check if the problem is with the wiper blade/arm, or with the motor. The wiper arm has a nut which holds it to the motor. To access this, there is a cover at the end of the wiper arm (the other extreme end from the rubber blade). Flip this cover and check if the nut is tight. If not, tighten it. This might be the reason for the blade hanging. If it still continues to sag, open the nut and take out the wiper arm. You should be able to see the bolt from the wiper motor protuding out. Rock it to see if it is wobbling and shaky. If it is, then the plastic housing of the lift gate will need to be removed. It can be done, but does require mechanical proficiency

How can I fix my 1998 Grand Am windshield wipers from when they're not moving at all?

You have to diagnose it first. With key on and wiper switch on, listen carefully, if you do not hear an electric motor running check the fuse. If the fuse is good and the wiper motor is receiving power and ground, the wiper motor assembly is probably bad. If you hear a motor running but nothing is moving, the wiper transmission assembly is stripped or the linkage is loose and came apart.
