Unless you have a loose connection on the multi-pin plug to the
switch,causing arcing.The cause is probably overload on the wiper
motor.Do the wipers appear to be slower than normal when
operating?You could have a faulty motor,they don't last forever.If
you remove the water deflector,(plastic moulding across front
scuttle)you gain access to the motor and linkage.Try a drop of oil
on each of the linkage pivot joints and down the wheelbox shafts
under the wiper arms.Any tightness could cause fuse blowing
overload.

What is wrong if the fuses keep blowing on your vauxall cavalier?
Sam,you need to be a bit more specific for any help on
this.Fuses can blow for several reasons,just being old is one.Try
to isolate which fuse is blowing and what you have just switched on
to cause it.Most fuses protect more than one circuit so you need to
ascertain which component is faulty or may have a short circuit.
Also ensure fuses fitted are the correct rating,consult your
handbook for this.No good putting a 5amp in where a 25amp
needed.
