How do you fix windshield wipers that wont move after they tried lifting snow on 99 Ford F150?
Your windshield wipers were most likely overloaded and blew the fuse, try replacing the fuse. If that does not fix it then it is possible that the wiper motor burned out and will require replacement.
What causes windshield wipers to vibrate?
Dryness will cause the wipers to vibrate or jitter against the glass. If there is not enough moisture on the windshield (for example, a light sprinkle of rain) the wipers may move with a jerky motion. Also, the wipers could be very old, and the wiping rubber/vinyl could have lost some of its softness and flexibility. If you mean vibration when they are not active, the wind against the windshield could cause them to flutter if they are not properly seated. A clean windshield and new wiper blades will usually cure the vibration.
What to do when window wipers stop working?
Really, it depends what you mean by "stop working". There are two types of broken. The first is they move from side to side still but the brush part wont clean. That means that the windshield wiper is old and worn out and that you need to go to your local wal-mart or automobile store or something like that and get new windshield wipers. The second type of broken is where the wipers dont even move. Check the bottom of the wipers. See if anything is wedged in there that would block the movement. If that is not the case then go to and local body shop or an automobile place that could replace the mechanism.

Someone can minimize the chances of a wiper arm being detached by making sure some water is sprinkled on the windshield while operating the wipers. The water provides some lubrication for the wipers to move easily.
How do you change the windshield wipers on a 1991 Acura Legend?
The drivers side wiper arm should move up if you pull up on them allowing you room to change out the wipers. Im sure I dont need to tell you how to change the wipers after that right? As for the right wiper its a little tougher. what i did was turn the wipers on and turn the car off when they were half way up. that should give u enough room to swap it out as well though the arm doesnt come up as high as the drivers side does. Hope that help you out. Bryan
