Wipers not working

1998 chevy c1500. would work occasionally, now not working at all. how do I replace?

  • Casey Cleland Dec 15, 2019

    First chevy had a recall on the wiper motor so you should check with your local dealer to see if that had already been replaced with the recall if it was then You may want to open the hood ans on the driver side fire wall tbere will be the motor remove the three screws to acses the circuit board go ahead and remove that dont be afraid to pull it out after you have it out check the sodering on the board you may need to heat any up to re sacure them.. If you just want to replace the whole board i just replaces mine and got a replacement on Amazon for less than 30 bucks hope this helps

First thing you could try is replacing the circuit board on your wiper motor. It's behind the black retangular box on your wiper motor. Not hard to change. A few screws and a plug in. Or- change the whole wiper motor. ( about $80 more than the board) Bolts can all be accessed by removing the cover at the bottom of your windshield. Pretty straight forward.

Why does my 1993 Chevy Silverado C1500 windshield wipers dont work right

The switch/circuit board that controls the wipers probably needs to be replaced. They're available at Advance Auto or other parts stores for about $25.

you have an e-brake switch shorted to ground the only light that goes on is the brake light on the dash when you engage the e-brake. check for fryed wires near the e-brake pedel and lever assy.

Beyond the obvious answer of replacing the motor itself, check the fuse, and bad wiper switch, it could be just the auto-park switch on the wiper motor that is worn out.

1996 chevy truck 1500. my windshield wipers work

Check for a loose fuse or loose wiring to the wiper. Also check for tight ground connection at the motor. The 'park' switch which completes each cycle may be intermittent. It might be a worn switch at the steering wheel.

You have to replace the switch inside the steering column. Last one I got I had to get from the dealer but you could try a parts store.

Wipers only work on high.

It sounds like the switch went out. I have seen a lot of GM products have this same problem.

for the bulb cradle you need to use some dielectric grease on the bulb contacts and check the ground for the tail light harness, on the wipers you need to replace the board in the wiper motor, it's available at the dealer and it may be a recall so it would be free
