A few months ago my wipers started making some pretty nasty noises, so I picked up a used motor in anticipation of this one giving up the ghost. So a few weeks ago it seemed the motor was not giving enough power, the wipers would go up no problem but would skip very badly on the down stroke. Made one heck of a noise.

So I swap in my used motor and everything is good. Now its started again! I live in the rain capitol of north america, I need these things to work.

so, did I buy a pooched motor or is something else wrong? Wiper blades are fairly new, under a few months for sure...
