Default Wipers not working.

Had my Z for almost four years now...Never got caught in the rain with it......Yesterday for the hell of it I turned the wipers on...Nothing on either setting..

Didn't get a chance to look yet.....Anybody have this problem? Solution ?

Did you try with your hood up? I had this happen once and the wiper blades were the incorrect style and hung up on the hood.


Once the hood was up they worked fine. Which of course leads you to where the real problem is.

Fixed....Finally got in there with a flashlight..The front connection was off......Could not see it, it was blended in with all the wires which were covered in the black plastic tubing...
