Strange Turn signal
Strange Turn signal
For some reason my turn signal is not disabling after the wheel is turned back. I have to manually turn it off. What/how do I fix this?
Also, my windshield wipers are now working at all now. Before, they worked, but gradually sloooooooowed down. What do I do? (new wiper motor?)

For the wiper problem, take it apart and rebuild the linkage. It's not that hard. I had the same problem.
The main bitch of it is to get the linkage out the cowl hole... Once it's out, it's fairly easy. Soak all the joint in WD-40.
Try and run the motor with the linkage unbolted from it's output shaft. If the motor runs slowly, it's slightly harder to rebuild, but not rocket science.
Clean the commutator well (Little round segmented copper lookin thing on the armature.) Be sure to hold the brushes (Small chunks of carbon that touch the commutator. Spring loaded.) back with something when reassembling it. Other than that, it's juse cleaning dust outta the motor housing and relubing the bearings.
