not that i know of.

i had to replace the wiper linkage. i called up "curtesy nissan" (did i spell that right? probably not). and ordered a linkage.

it looked like a pain in the *** to fix, but really was easy and would have been faster if i knew exactly what to do.

after taking everything off to see the linkage take off the wiper motor and it just prys right off basically after moving it.

getting it back on is the headache, cause you have to move it around correctly and then put in the linkage through the hole onto the motor. then hook the other end up.

the plastic ends get beat up on those linkages'.

wish i had a writeup, but i used the manual and the haynes manual's that i had to get a better understanding of everything.

Warmer day today, cleaned more ice near the arms, got the wipers to start working, but only after moving them around by hand a while.

Must be linkage or motor, not sure if ice is getting trapped in the linkage.

Will have to try a couple of mechanics tomorrow. I can drive, but can't simulate the situation for them.
