    Well, Today we got some decent snow finally in Michigan. I was outside brushing the snow off my GT, had the wipers on and I went to "pop" them to get the ice off and they just quit working.

    I've checked the fuses already, those are good. When they first stopped working I pushed them a little bit to see if I could start them again and they had a little play, they didn't start again so I moved them back to where they were and now they wont move at all.

    Maybe that little resistance that my hand had on them messed them up? I'm lost here. So if anyone can help. Thanks.

    Hoping its something simple, they're still stuck, no play at all. Im going to disconnect the battery and see if that might reset them or something.

    If its the gear or something along those lines, can it be replaced separately or would I half to buy a whole motor assembly? I'm mechanically inclined so Im sure I can replace this myself, although any tips would be appreciated. :] I was going to call Ed morad to see if they had some to replace the old ones if they are bad, hoping this weather breaks soon. -__-
