Rear wiper motor and antenna not working (93 Touring)

I have searched the forum and there is a lot of topic on antenna replacement, but when I search on rear wiper motor I dont find anything.

I noticed my antenna wasnt working last fall... not a big deal cause I rarely listen to radio. However this spring I noticed that my rear wiper (93 Touring) wasnt working either. It could have stopped working at the same time as the antenna and just didnt realize it until now.

When I turn the rear wiper on, I can hear 4 small clicks coming from it, but it doesnt move.

I know it is common for the antenna to crap out, but is it also common for the rear wiper motor to stop too? Is there something else I should be checking that might be affecting them both? I checked the rear wiper fuse (10A) in the fuse box by the driver foot well and it was fine.

Thoughts?

Good reason to reduce weight.

maybe the motors went bad. we have to remember these are 20 year old parts. but check the wires by the motors to see if they are in good shape and to be sure that they are getting the right voltage and grounding.

I disconnected my antenna power wire on purpose. that thing is hugeeeeeeeeeee!

Check your fuses.
Then check the relay.
Then check the motors.
