driver side wiper isn't working... help
i tried using my wipers today and the driver side wiper isn't moving, upon further inspection the motor is moving but the teeth are not catching. can i replace this easily? :bustrun:

There should be an arm that connects to the motor, the passenger and to the drivers side wiper. Most likely the arm has popped off. on the drivers side. The arm has a plastic bushing that goes over a ball joint. Just grease it up and press it back on. If it pops off then the plastic bushing is bad. Some vehicles you can buy the bushing at an auto parts store. Sometimes the dealer, and worst case you have to buy the whole arm.
