As you were sitting in the spa, did your wife provide 
you with your cold beverage of choice 
before she went to the parts store for you?

Hello List,
        I decided to take the wiper motor apart since I had it out of the
truck. I 
didn't want to spend the $175.00 on a new one either. So I took it apart to 
see what was up with it. There was a small spring that holds two pieces in 
place that the end had broken off and it fell apart inside. The first time 
I put it together wrong. I didn't have a pair of snap ring pliers and I 
kind of distorted the snap ring. Then everything was going well, I mean I 
had figured out how it went back together properly. When my wife decided to 
fix the snap ring and broke the end of it off. So I had to wait in the spa, 
while she went to the parts store and got a new snap ring. I hooked it all 
up and it works well. Don't be afraid to open stuff up. You have nothing to 
lose and a $175.00 to gain if it works. Yippee!!
