Subject:Wipers Very Slow
From:Alan Pickersgill

After weeks of being parked my '85 Vanagon is back on the road with a
remanufactured engine. Seems  v. nice but my wipers are misbehaving. Work
very slowly and then stop. Clicking noise from in the dash area when
stopped so I  went outside and helped them get to the parked position.
Noise stopped. I assume something  is seized in the shaft or somewhere.
Have I likely done seriours harm. Noise sounded bad but didn't sound
terminal?  What  do I   do about this? How do I get at the motor linkage
etc.?

All advice welcome.  Apologies if this has been covered before but I can't
get into the archives,  I assume they are down.
