Locating the windshield wiper fuse 1998 Toyota 4Runner

the wiper fuses / relays are in the top left of the fusebox

Check the fuse panel to make sure there isn't a fuse that is blown. If it is just replace the fuse and it should work.

it could be powered thru a relay

on the wiper arm, there is a cap. remove cap and there is a nut underneath, remove nut spray wd40 oil on the threads that are exposed, then slowly wiggle arm and pull simultaneously to remove.

check the fuses

the washer motor is gone then ,,,its in the bottle,,

do the snap into place when you put them on? just get new ones from schucks for 30 bucks

I took it to a mechanis, who is a friend of mine. Toyota made that rear windshield wiper custom. So he took off the stopper and the screw in lock and I bought a 13" blade and we put the attachment on that came wih the wiper and slid it on to the arm.

The fuse is the 20 amp WIPER fuse, located in the fusebox under the driver side of the dash, farthest on the left, 2nd one up from the bottom.

1) listen if windshield wiper motor is turning when switched on. The motor is under hood up near firewall.
If no noise and fuses are OK, motor may need replacement.

2) If motor can be heard whirring, then maybe the plastic link between the motor shaft and the wiper arm assy has worn or broken. (A very cheap part). This can be accessed by removing cowling or vents in front of windshield. This is a common failure.
