Windshield wipers slow, then stop working and then come on again

On our 2004 Mitsubishi Galant, the wipers work at first, then slow, then stop working completely for around 10 minutes, then they come on again, slow and stop again. If we try to turn them off and back on it doesn't help, they won't come on again unless we wait. What can I try to do to fix the problem at home?

I have a 98 Montero Sport. My wipers paused and went then they stopped completly. Come to find out the grease inside the wiper motor had dried out so I put some grease in it and walla works like new. Better then spending 200 on a new wiper motor ^_^

Windshield wipers quit working

Sounds like your windshield wiper motor has gone bad. I would suggest buying a book for your car, testing the wiper motor and replacing as necessary. Good luck!

Go back to the store, they have a chart showing the correct ones, and if you didn't abuse the first set they'll probably trade you. Ask and I'm sure they'll help you get the right ones. Still have your receipt?
