Wiper switch fuse question(sorry i searched)

Ok i got my switch rebuilt like less than a week ago. But then today i got my cat converter replaced the ppl at the garage pulled my fuses cause my engine was flooded. When they did that could they mess up the fuse to the wiper switch so i won't work?


1. no wiper fluid
2. no sound
3. new wiper switch.

PLs help me guys, i live in a city of rain.

You would need to get a multi-meter and check to see if there is voltage on both sides of the fuse when the key is on.

The other option is to just replace the fuse with a known good one.

The problem with ATC fuses, is while you can look and see if they are blown if it was a sudden blow, but if it was just a slight overheat and the internal fuse metal cracked, you won't see if the fuse is blown.
