wind shield wiper issue

Hello, I just took my 93' Ford Explorer out of storage - I use it just to pull my fishing boat from spring to fall. Well, the wind shield wipers do not work. Yes, I tool out the owners manual, looked up the fuses chart, thhe one highlighting front windshield wipers was a 6V circuit breaker. Therefore, I went to Napa parts and purchased a new one ($14) replaced it and nothing...

Suggestions?

Thanks

no. I wish it was that easy, then I could just say; "****, I'm just stupid." But that is not the case. I moved them around, even tried getting them to move manually - no luck whatsoever, I kind of worried about this - might be that little motor or whatever that little box is under the hood... ?

Wipers

Buy yourself a 12 volt test light and see if you have voltage at that wiper motor.

Hi there...looking to help someone in getting the Intake Manifold Gasket replaced. The person does not have the 400 plus dollars to get this done at a shop, and well since I enjoy doing car work I would like to take a shot at doing this. This is something I have not done before, but am willing to find out what I need to do to help this guy out. So please, anyone out there that know, or can send me what I need to do, I would be very thankful. Have a great day Rick

97 Jimmy radiator leaking

M

Mylilprincess on Mar 30, 2007

Hi, I am the 3rd owner of a 1997 GMC Jimmy with 55k miles and for a few weeks now my truck has been leaking anifreeze. I'm a single mother and I don't have a lot of money to get it fixed. I hate the idea of taking the truck in and having the wolfs eat me alive with "Oh you need this $$$ and that done $$$". Is there any way to seal the leak? Or could the radiator be cracked or maybe I have some bad seals. Please any help would be really great! I need a knight in shining armor! ~Mylilprincess~
