TIGHTEN THE NUT HOLDING THE ARM TO THE CAR when its loose the wiper just sits in off position. do so by lifting the hood because its the best way to access the nut, then use the proper wrench size, mine does this all the time so i carry the wrench in the car, hope this works, let me know.
I think ther are rubber bushings that hold the wiper arms on the wiper linkages that have worn out,some cars have these & if the arms can't move because the blades were frozen to the window,those linkage shafts that the arm fits on were still turning underneath tearing the rubber up,can you here the motor turning with no wiper movement,or is there nothing,could be blown fuse cause the wiper motor got hot from not being able to rotate inside?
there is no other alternative but to replace the whole unit either with new or a reconditioned unit. it comes in one set for both sides and driven by steel cables engaged to the electric motor.
there is a lever to push down and it pulls out, check the passenger side to see where it is because its more open and easier to view. the lever should be grey
Ensure you check the actual wiper fuse (15A). If OK then pull plug out of wiper motor and run separate power to hot terminal, if it works then wiring to switch or switch is faulty, if it doesnt work then motor needs removal for O/H.
There is not a way to manually adjust the seats, and in order to repair your stated issue, I will agree with you, it sounds like a cable issue. problem is, you have to time the cables, so that they will not continue to operate in a twisted state.
You need to remove the 4 nuts underneath the seat and take the seat out to replace the cable. usually the metal strip inside the cable has tiny line groves at both ends. This will wear off over the years.
And you thought pulling the heater box was bad. I think you're going to need to loosen the arm at the motor to gain some room to allow the cable to be put back on.
