Need help w/ wiper motor

[vilant]

I just purchased a 1990 Red ZR1 #2599. Was referred to this site from another ZR owner at the CCDV. Just sent in my check yesterday should be a full member here soon. I followed the threads in tech data to wiper motor removal, but for some reason that's the only thread where nothing comes up when I click on it(may have been removed). Anyway, I just noticed the wipers only come up @ 1" then go back down, I assume (you know what they say about that) the motors are shot, or maybe if I get them out, I can take a part the motor and see what's wrong. Problem is the wiper arms don't come up far enough for me to get the one screw out. I don't want to just rip the arm up and make things worse. Any suggestions or tips on how to fix the wipers? Thx, Joe

Joe,

Welcome to the family. Being that is might be more common on C4 forum, I would suggest going to the "other" forum for this (corvettefor_m.com) in the C4 technical section. I have good success finding C4 issues there. Good luck with that.

Thank you for your help guys. It is greatly appreciated. After I fix the wiper motors (already fixed the radio and headlight motors), she'll be 100% again. Thx
