Why would the rear windshield wiper stop working on a 2005 Ford Focus?

Check the fuse and relay located in the dashboard complartment located near the drivers knee. Fuse number #43 and relay #18 control the rear wiper for the 2001 model. Check your operators manual for the correct numbers for 2005 model.
The fuse can be checked by pulling it out and looking at the U shaped wire inside the plastic case. If the wire is broken, replace the fuse with the same size. The size is marked on the top of the fuse, 10, 20 30, or 40. Fuses are available at the local auto parts store.
The relay can be checked by switching it with the front wiper relay, #19, and checking to see if the front wipers still work. Replace if needed. Your Ford dealer can supply a new relay.
If the fuse and relay are OK then its time to check connections to the wiper switch and motor. The switch can be checked by measuring the voltage, using a voltmeter or indicator, at the motor connections with the switch in the "on" position. If voltage is detected the switch is good, replace the motor. If no voltage replace the switch.

2001 vw jetta windshield wipers stopped working. checked and the fuse is good.?
Check the wiper relay. If it is good, then either the wiper motor or the wiper switch is bad. If it just stopped working one day for no reason, I would suspect the wiper motor. However,I just had this problem and it was the windshield wiper transmission, they started getting slower and slower over a few months and then it was seized one day. That is one strong motor VW uses so it is hard to go bad.

Sound to me like your wiper motor is out. The water pump is totally separate from the wiper motor. Good Luck!!!

If it's the same reason mine stopped, it's because the not is loose where the wiper arm is attached (at the windshield). Most likely caused by operating the wipers while they are stuck in ice or snow. Hope that helps

First step would be to check fuse, if good check to see if there is power to the wiper motor, if so bad wiper motor, if not could be switch. Also, get some W-D 40 and spray the area of the windshield wiper motor. Then take a hammer, and gently hit on it. It might just be stuck on something.
