Wiper not working in cold weather
Hi everyone,
I have an issue with the wipers on my Civic 2002.
When it is very cold outside (around -15C) the wiper sometimes dont work at all. It turn the wiper on (any position) and absolutely nothing happen.
From what I can see, if the car warm up, I stop the car for a while and then I restart the car, the wipers start working again.
Should I replace the motor or could it be something else ??? Computer, ground...
Thanks

RE: Wiper not working in cold weather
I removed the grease in the gears box and added new one (Less of it, there was a big 'chunk' of grease in the gears). I cleaned the motor with contact cleaner and everythine worked fine this morning at -25C.
Case closed... Thanks everyone
