Best Answer

You probably have a break in the linkage. The motor turns the linkage that makes the wipers move. The linkage is connected by plastic caps over a ball joint. These can separate. You can buy new generic plastic caps to try and replace from parts stores. It works sometimes. New linkage from GM isa one part and replaces all linkage and joints. Close to $200.
