My rear wiper stopped working.
When I turn it on it jerks slightly, like its trying to engage
but never engages. Do I need a new motor?

The passenger side front windshield washer nozzle does not spray, while
trying to clean it, the nozzle came off an now I can't put it back on
without having to remove the entire front cowl assembly to reclip it?
I did notice that the nozzle is clear, I can blow air thru its tiny opening.

Suggestions anyone?

Probably a bad motor or internal switches in the motor that control
the cycle. If you need one, email me, I have working one for sale
cheap from a '93/'95 that I pulled from mine. We'd need to check part
#'s to make sure it would fit.

Yeah, get used to it! Those of us who live in snow country have
replaced those standing snap-offs many a time. It's easy to remove the
cowl - just remove the wipers, take out the trim screws, turn the
round headed fasteners 90 degrees. The cowl comes out. Repair (or
usually replace) the nozzle. Reassemble.
