OK, my intermitent wipers have taken the "intermitent" part a step further: they only work when they feel like it! 
I cant understand what would make them work some of the time without a problem, and then get stuck half way the next day and not move from there.
Any ideas????? |

Have you checked all the linkage for wear, or it may be the motors are packing up. When it stops does the wiper motor still have power to it? If it does, then it's probably worn out brushes on the wiper motor. If it doesn't then it might be the relay, or the switch or the earth point might be corroded. |

I think it is more elec then mechanical. I would change the relays and clean all the contacts first. |

Hmmm..... I did use electrical cleaner.
It is hard to reproduce. I dont think it is mechanical, as I have tried helping them along by giving them a tug when they get stuck.
