Hi,

Did both of these fail at the same time? I ask because the only thing I see that ties them together is the ground location, (G202), on the left side of the dash.

Let's focus on the wipers. I attached a wiring schematic below of the circuit. I need you to check the fuse I highlighted. When checking, make sure there is power to and from the fuse.

Here is a link you may find helpful:

Next, if the fuse is good and has power, we need to check the ground that ties the two components together. At the ground, there will be black wires and if I recall, the ground is via the sheet metal.

Let me know what you find.

Joe
