Here are the solutions for a car windshield wiper that is not moving: 1. Check the fuse: Open the hood and observe if the transmission linkage is dislocated. Check if the fuse is intact. 2. Multimeter measurement: Remove the motor wire plug, turn on the power, and use a multimeter to measure if there is voltage. If the fuse is intact but there is no voltage at the motor, check the wiring and the turn signal combination switch. If there is normal voltage at the wiper motor when the power is turned on, consider the possibility of motor damage. Here are the maintenance methods for car windshield wipers: 1. Every time you wash the car, in addition to cleaning the windows, it is best to also wipe the wiper blades with glass cleaner. This will extend the lifespan of the wiper blades. 2. Spray some cleaning solution, then activate the wipers. Pay attention to whether the wiper movement is smooth and listen for any loud "scraping" sounds. If there are, it means the wiper is pressing too hard against the glass and needs to be adjusted appropriately. After the wiper sweeps one or two times, check if there is any water left on the windshield and observe whether any scratches are left.

Does the Elantra have a manual transmission?

Elantra has a manual transmission. Components of a manual transmission car: By switching different gear sets, gear ratio changes are achieved. As the key component for power distribution, the transmission must have two major parts: the power input shaft and output shaft. Together with the gears that form the transmission, these constitute the most basic components of a manual transmission. Principle of manual transmission cars: The power input shaft is connected to the clutch. The power transmitted from the clutch is directly passed to the gear set through the input shaft. The gear set consists of gears with different diameters, and different gear ratios result in completely different power transmission effects. The gear shifting during normal driving refers to changing the gear ratio.
