windshield wipers not moving?

[Jacoblopes]

So i bought my Comanche last year, and when i got it the wipers moved really slow. All a the sudden they completely stopped working? don't really know what to do and don't wanna take it to a mechanic. Anything would help

 

Thanks.

Check the ground and if it is intermittent wipers, unplug the black box module/governor and plug the two ends together and see if you have wipers. If not then the motor could be bad or need regrease or the linkage bushings fell apart. So there’s a few things to check.

Mine suddenly stopped on me once.  Motor continued to make some noise, so I figured it likely wasn't the problem.  Turns out, parts of the wiper motor assembly came apart.  There are 3 or 4 bolts that hold it all together, which overtime became loose and at least one totally backed out of its hole.  It was essentially falling apart.
