flymore Posted July 18 Report Share Posted July 18 While driving in the rain today my front wipers stopped working, and then started again after turning a corner. Wasn't a heavy rain so I was turning them off and on again. They stopped for a long time. figured I'd blown a fuse but then abruptly started again after a sharp left turn. Some months ago I did replaced the wiper blades with Motorcraft blades. Is there something that needs lubrication? New wiper motor? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could also be the wiper switch. Best to check with ForScan for any codes to better diagnose the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flymore Posted Sunday at 04:10 PM Author Report Share Posted Sunday at 04:10 PM (edited) Was just out driving today. Pulled the washer/wiper it sprayed the windshield, wiped it and worked fine. I used forscan to read for codes. Edited Sunday at 04:13 PM by flymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flymore Posted Monday at 01:09 PM Author Report Share Posted Monday at 01:09 PM Checked again for codes, no codes. Had wife spay windshield with hose while I ran wipers, all went fine. I put new motorcraft wipers on five months ago. Is there any re calibration I need to do when changing wiper blades? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
