had to removed the arms in order to check the motor

[d..]

I mean before the problem arose 

 

or the motors themselves need to be in a certain sequence for the movement to rotate correctly when fitted 

as when they are loose it will just spin as it should

the motor not sipping at all

Would also check to see if the spline fitment on the arm itself is in good order. If worn motor will turn arms will stay still. Hope this helps.

the motor spins when 12v applied direct

was bodywork repair in area of wiper or its wiring ?

I would assume bad wiring or relay to start with, basic power and ground checks to start with at harness to motor and see where results lead you ...

[silver500]

where is the relay located ?

I have removed the glove box 

still cant find it - 

help appreciated
