check the fuse if its blown

check your wheelwells for some freyed wires, mine didnt work and a blue and white wire was freyed.

then, take the connector off the wiper motor, and get a test light, and check every pin if you are getting light, some will turn on, when you change the wiper speed, some will turn off, important thing is you are getting signal,

if the light is not changing as you change the wiper switch settings and you're getting light with the test light, then you need a Combination switch (turn signal & wiper switch). Around $300 from the dealer. FD01-66-120D (i hope thats not the case)

if you're getting the signal changes to the connector, most likely your wiper motor is blown.

(dont mean to plug, but i have one for sale, pm me if you find out that you need it)
