Question:

windshield wiper problems in 95 chevy s-10?

My windshield wipers have been acting strange ever since i got the truck. when ever i turn them on they are very slow. however if it has been raining heavily for a while they are faster than normal. and sometimes (even if it HAS been raining) they will completely stop in the middle of a cycle, right in the middle of the windshield. if that happens, usually a little pushing or pulling on them will get them going again. I have already replaced the motor and they still did it even the moment after i put the new motor in. what can cause this and how do i fix it so i dont have to pull over anymore to get my windshield wipers going again?

Answer:

This is a serious problem, especially in the rain and could be fatal. I would suggest taking the truck to Chevy.
GM trucks are known for a ground problem on the wiper motor. try running a ground wire from a good grounded source to the motor this should work.
this is a common concern with this model, it requires replacement of the circuit board in the wiper motor. the gm kit comes with the board , cover and new screws . some were under a recall check with the dealer they can check by your vin number . you will need a torx socket to remove the screws. the job will take around 30 min to do
