First you will need to pop out the dash top because there is 2 nuts by the bottom of the glass on the fire wall where the wiper motor is under the cowl then open the hood and remove the wiper arms and the cowl then you will have 2 or 3 bolts that hold the wiper transmisson in place and out comes the wiper moter

SOURCE: Windshield Wiper Arm

Pull up on the wiper arm, you will see a tiny little blade on the side of the wiper arm where it goes over the post, take a little screwdriver and pry that out board, this will release the arm from the post, it will be tight, wiggle the arm and pull straight out away from the post.

SOURCE: windshield wiper motor

Easy done . Remove wiper arms with the hood closed. Open the hood. there a number of press clips that look like philips screws. on the front of the wiper plastics, remove them, remove the rubber trim. lift off the top plastics revealing the bottom fixing. there are 4 8mm bolts that you need to remove and remove the air and water vent screws. waggle the scection loose, remove the washer pipes from passenger side and off the jets, unclip the harness of the wiper motor and you can then remove from the car

SOURCE: trying to find windshield wiper motor. Where is it

remove wiper arm and check splines on wiper motor or splines on wiper arm for damage if damaged replace. Sometimes arms are just installed with a nut and this nut over time becomes loose check tightness.

SOURCE: I replaced the windshield wiper linkage on 2003

Take linkage loose and run wiper motor one turn. You've got the motor and linkage "out of time" .

SOURCE: 1999 Saturn SL1 wipers work but won't stop once

Same problem here. Check for a short in the wiring under the dash before replacing anything. I replaced the integral switch and the motor/module assembly and yet......they keep going and going and going. After shelling out 250.00 I wished I would of investigated a little more. My problem is the black wire from the ignition switch to the splice pack/ ground terminal is burnt. and also charred about 6 other wires. 3 of which pertain to the wiper switch assembly. I don't know if this helps, but hopefully it will.

How to replace a 99 se Bonneville windshield wiper motor

Windshield wiper motors are generally easy to replace. You need to remove the windshield wipers and take off the small grill panel above the hood and under the windshield. You should see the motor in there. It simply unbolts and unplug the electrical connector and replace it with a new one.

Ware is the wiper module located on a 2000 crown victoria

Follow the Dark Blue/White wire or Brown/White wire from the Multifunction Switch to the wiper module according to the schematic.
Also, one can trace the wires from the windshield wiper motor to the wiper module by peeling away the wiring loom and looking for a Yellow/Red wire that leads to the module.

2000 Saturn LS, windshield wipers park in the middle of the windshield. How can I fix this?

The wipers are parking in the middle because the timing mechanism is off. Once they start doing this it seems to continue to happen so the 1st suggestion is to replace the wiper motor. If U don't want to spend the $ right now it's a pretty easy fix to reset the timing. Park the wipers & remove the wiper arms. Then remove the plastic cowling that covers the wiper motor & the motor assembly. Turn the wiper assembly over without turning the motor. Remove the nut on the arm of the motor. Repostion the arm pointing away from the closet wiper directly inline with the short arm. reassemble.
