looks like i need a new wiper motor like this one in the pic, any one got one??? need it asap!!!!

If you have a multimeter, hold the black to a bolt or something on the chassis and the other on the 12v wire then get a helper to turn on the windscreen wipers. If you get a reading then its ya motor and the circuit is fine if you dont then most likely bumped a wire off sumwhere. If you dont know which is the 12v wire (im pretty sure you will have a little clip with all the wires that clips to the motor) just fish through them and look for a 12v reading (with wiper switch on) if none have 12v its the system etc etc..

yeah sweet as, i am going to test it just to make sure it is the motor
cheers

np, good luck with it.

wooohooooo today i got my wiper motor tested and turns out it actually works, it wasnt the motor it was the plug which plugs into the paddles, although i was positive that it was on, well yes it was on but the brass tongues were not lined up properly so i have gone to alot of trouble to just come to this conclusion. but its great cause now i have wipers woooohooooooo!!!!
yeah i just wanted to thank those that helped me in the right direction esp (type1, lobus, jnr356 and karmen) thanks guys for helping me find a motor, at least now when the motor does actually kark it i will know who to ask! oh yeah i also wanted to apologise to jnr356 and lobus for going to all that trouble of gettingme a motor, i was about to pick the motor up from jnr356 but got my orginal one tested first and well guess what it worked so i no longer need the spare one which lobus gave to jnr356 for me. thanks heaps David and mark for you help and assistance

thought that might be ya prob, motors dont usually die without some indicators.
