Hi Guys,
I've a 2001 Sahara. While on the highway, the wipers stopped working with a plastic burning smell.
I think the wiper-motor is dead but want to check with y'all.
After I got home, I found out the wiper-fuse was blown (probably as a fail-safe) so I replaced it with a new one. Now the wire-harness that connects to the motor gets really hot when I turn on the wiper switch. Does that mean switch/electricals are working and motor is the issue? Before I buy a new wiper-motor, how do I check if it's the electrical issue or the wiper-motor?
Been following this nice detailed write-up by @TJDave so far.
Thank You! =)
