Most likely a fuse(s) check them all if you havn't already
A bad fuse may be the cause of windshield wipers not working on a 1998 Lumina. The switch that activates the wiper motor is another possible cause for the wipers not working.
i was driving in the rain last night my headlights and wipers quit working and i stop the car for 15 minutes and they starting working again and they are still working what could have cause this my car is 2002 cavalier
There could be numerous problems that may cause this fault. Personally, my blinkers started going out (working sometimes and sometimes not) and what I found out is this...The flasher switch that is located in the dashboard above the radio is faulty. When my blinkers do not work i just tap down on the flasher switch without turning it on and my blinkers work again. Shotty electrical work in this car if ya ask me.
The most common cause that windshield wipers stop working is a blown fuse. The windshield wiper motor may need to be changed is also common.
Short
Check two things: 1) the fuse for your flashers/blinkers and 2) that the bulbs are good still.
Fuse or windshield wiper motor.
your car stalled?
You have to diagnose the system to determine the cause. Check the fuses, the bulbs, the flasher relay then the switch.
If the windshield wipers are not working in a 1998 Ford F150, the cause could be a blown fuse. There could also be a problem with the vacuum hoses connected to the wiper motor or the wiper motor itself.
Blown fuse or bad wiper motor.
