Rear Wiper Not Working

[rapdes]

Hi All,
I recently purchased my first explorer (94 Sport).
I love it so far, the only repair I need to make is to get the rear wiper working. Does anyone have a wiring diagrahm for this. From reading some posts it sounds like there are a bunch of swithes that could be the problem. What is the best way of tracking down where the problem is?

thanks!

When mine stopped working, I left the switch on and I heard the motor running. The arm was stuck. It seems to do that every now and then, yours may be different. Good luck!

Mine quites working all the time. After reading a few posts on here about it...I did the time honored "slam the hatch shut" a few times trick. It works! Seems mine stops working every week or two. I just leave the switch and key on, go back there and slam the hatch several times and it usually starts working again. Go figure??!!
The only thing I can think of is to make sure your fuses are all ok. You might need to remove the inner liner for the hatch and take a voltmeter to the wiper motor. Make sure the motor is getting power. At least then you can either replace the motor or search the power supply knowing whether power gets there or not.
Good luck and let us know what you find/do.
