Winshield Wiper Issue

I have a 1996 Rodeo. A couple of weeks ago the drivers side windshield wiper arm stopped working. The passenger side works fine. The drivers side arm moves freely manually.

Does this sound like a wiper motor issue or an electrical issue?

Thanks,

Gary

Neither. Sounds to me like the nut that holds the wiper arm on the shaft has worked loose. There should be a nut under a cover at the very bottom of the wiper arm. Tighten it.

Cat

It's not the nut.

Anyother ideas guys?

If it's not the nut and only one wiper works, then it has to be a linkage problem. You'll have to get under there and check the linkage itself.
