My front wipers (both) have stopped working. Its likely due to accidental use with heavy snow, ice buildup. Before I assume the motor, what can i troubleshoot in terms of the fuses?
How can i gain access to check the C1 Fuse, its a bit farther up and out of reach?
There was also some reference to a module under the hood. Is there anything i can check there?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Besides the fuse and the relay, both of which are good possibilities, take off a wiper and check theinside of the arm, this area is supposed to be splined and you might have stripped them.
At this point, if you have already checked the fuse and relay, power in and power out on the relay, take off both arms and turn on your motor to see if it is getting power. You should get a noise and/or movement. You might have popped off the interior arm off the motor.
All are good posibilities, good luck and hope this helps.

First off I would find out what amp fuse it needs and replace it. There fairly inexpensive. The module I have never heard of their can be a wiper relay that is also inexpensive. Their really is no way to check the relay. If all else fails change the wiper motor.

i own a repair shop,and id check the fuse first, it usually is the fuse that blows especially if the wipers got stuck from ice or heavy snow,it over loads the fuse circuit and blows the fuse,,the module they was talking about is a relay,and they don't go out that often,good luck with it,i hope this help,s.
