Why do your 2006 Mazda 3 windshield wipers stop in up position?

Well it could be one of many possiblities. Typically its in the switch on the steering column. Often enough its as simple as a wire shorting out between the switch and the wiper motor. Sometimes the wiper could be turned on and be stuck on something and basically get over torqued in which case you would need to loosen the bolt and hand turn them back once and probably never see the problem again. But still there are plenty of different reasons why. What would help find a more accurate answer is when it is stuck up how do you get it back down if you keep hitting the switch and then all the sudden it goes down then you probably need a switch. If it never goes back down then it gets more complicated. Try turning them on and tap the wiper motor with a hammer not really hard but don't be too shy with it, if it all the sudden works you may need a motor. If you can get a test light and test the wires for power close to the motor you mat find just one wire that's bad. Its almost trial and error. Good luck.
