Why Won't the Car's Windshield Wipers Move?

[GriffinFitz]

The reasons why the car's windshield wipers won't move: 1. There is an issue with the power supply to the wiper motor, commonly caused by a blown wiper motor fuse, preventing the wipers from functioning properly; 2. The wiper motor itself is damaged, either the motor or its integrated control module is faulty, and replacement is necessary after inspection confirms the damage; 3. The mechanical linkage between the wiper motor and the wiper arm is detached, improperly installed, or damaged; 4. The wiper switch itself is damaged or its power supply grounding circuit is faulty; 5. There is an issue with the wiper motor wiring, such as an open or short circuit in the power supply or ground lines.
