Fix Those Wipers (Wiper Board Repair)
For those of us that that the recall dosent cover here is a cheap fix. I got sick of having my wipers quit on me when I needed them most. This fix will get you going again for almost free.

What you need
Torx T20 bit and related driver tool
Soldering iron and rosin core solder
15 mins of your time

Locate the wiper motor (adjacent to the brake booster)
Remove the 3 T20 screws, and then the cover

Remove the grey locking pin on the wiring harness, then remove the connector.
CAREFULLY wiggle the board out of the housing.
Look at the backside of the board for "cold" solder joints. You may even see a complete break. resolder the bad joints and any in question. Mine was on the connector as indicated by the arrow
Reinstall everything in reverse order.
Try them out....if they work fine now, pat yourself on the back and give yourself a star!
