wipers don"t work when cold

Lately, when starting the rx in the morning the windshield wipers don't work. After a short while (about 10-15 minutes) they again work normally. Also once when the wipers were not working, the heater blower motor was not functioning either. The blower has worked at all other times.

Any clues?

Thanks

Is the wiper motor not mechanically moving or trying to move???

More than likely cold solder joints, or loose fuse box connections, but you can't rule out mechanical issues because of the cold.

mine does that too sometimes, not just when it's cold tho, just at random times, i think the ignition may have bad connection or something.

A way around it i found was to turn your key slightly to the on position, u should hear a click sound and everything will be on again...hope this doens't mess up anything though
