Angry so what part of the windshield wiper system did I fry?

So a couple weeks ago I put in a fully working windshield wiper switch. Everything worked. Intermittant, slow, fast, and the wipers returned to where they were supposed to. I WAS IN HEAVEN!!! I mean, after over a year and a half of driving my car without this thing working right, it finally worked!

Well, I went out to start my car, and there was a LITTLE snow on it. I hit the wiper switch to clear it off, and they got stuck. I got out, and helped em, but they wouldn't move. (the Wipers). Well, after that, intermittant and high speed wouldn't work. What did I fry? I only fixed this 2 weeks ago! It was so great having them work!!!

Maybe its the windshield wiper motor now? I wouldnt think it getting stuck once would have fried anything.

Sounds like you burned the relay contacts in the switch. Replace the relay or switch.

Okay, I'll hop over to radio shack tomorrow and get the stuff I need to diagnose. Man, what a hard lesson to learn. Don't wipe the windshield of snow, now spend hours fixing windshield wiper switch! DAMN!

Actually, thats a video of a feed from a guided bomb flying into some building with some guy running away from it. Theres some guy running away on the left, you can sort of see him, hes the little white blob 1/4 of the way from the left and about in the middle. I captured the shot and made it my avatar.

Targeting pods are very expencive, and you can't get them on civi planes
