    The wiper motor itself does not usually go bad. There's an electronic box attached to the wiper motor. That box has a tiny weep hole. When the cowl area gets flooded and remains flooded due to debris within its drains, the entire wiper motor gets submerged for days or weeks. During this period water enters the weep hole of the electronic box and corrodes the printed circuit board within. When that happens various portions of the circuit can stop working. That box tells the motor to run full speed, half speed, or various intermittent speeds. The Ford Mustang has this same issue...usually caused by leaves or pine needles, dirt being stuck in the cowl area. An astute owner knows to check the drains of this area periodically. Note: Ford or aftermarket suppliers do not sell that electronic box separately from the motor. Best to buy a used motor with that box still attached.
    When replacing a wiper motor, after the wiper arms have been removed....best to run the new motor prior to reinstalling the wiper arms. Only reinstall the wiper arms after the motor has cycled into it's stop/rest position. Installing the wiper arms in the wrong position can cause them to attempt to swipe beyond the windshield and onto the trim and body of the A pillar.

      Can you tell if it's this plugged drain that's causing my cv to have a wet floor pan on driver side?

      Mine caught fire and toasted some stuff.
      Now my transmission grinds going out of park and into gear. Almost like a vacuum leak from brake booster to trans? Anyone have any info.

    1999 Grand Marquis (115000kms). High speed wipers only. Control module under dash, multi-function switch or wiper motor.
    Tapped on motor shaft and wiper now works in all speeds.
    So internal problem in motor or bad electrical connector?
    Will order motor from Rock Auto. Have spare motor from 93 Grand Marquis but may not fit. Wiper arms not fully in park position so have to get those clips to release.

    Mine was full of mud, dust built up plus rain. I did the switch still doesn't work most of the time. A new motor is next. I've already pulled it out 2-3 times.

      Corrosion of the printed circuit board attached to the wiper motor can cause different inoperative results depending on it's mood. My wipers worked sometimes and other times not, I finally figured out it was within that electronic box. A used motor and electronic box combo fixed the issue for good.
