Well, I got the last one wrong, lol. But...fuse?
Can you tell if the wipers are getting power, I mean, can you hear the electric motor running at all? Or I should say trying to run...
If yes, then it's not the fuse.

well let's see...
if you mean when I try to put on the wipers and I hear some noise coming from somewhere, then yes I do. My sister's fiancee checked it out and he doesn't think it's a fuse...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh ... how much is this going to cost!?
