Wipers getting stuck in up position, but otherwise working?


Recommended Posts

Made the mistake of not freeing the front wiper before the drive to the office this morning in -3 (celsius) temperatures. The wiper struggled, then proceeded to move across the windshield, before sticking in the up position. Turning the car off, then on again, the wiper resets as normal when starting and rests in the proper down position, but as soon as I turn the wiper on, it moves across the windshield and sticks in the up position again.

 

The fact that it can move, and across the full range, tells me it's not a fuse burned out or a damaged linkage, right?

 

Thanks in advance!
