rear wiper?

so this morning i get into my 2000 sw2 and head to work, i hit the rear wiper switch and nothing, then i try the washer squirter and it squirts and then the wiper slowly moves back and forth cleaning the window, so i try it again since its never done that and it moves about an inch or two and then stops, so im thinkin i have a bad motor?

frozen in place? *shrug* have a warm garage you can let it sit in for a little while, then try it?

i tried that yesterday, i left it inside the shop at work, but still no dice, one of these days im gonna check for power at the motor, since the hatch door panel is very easy to get off

these were very common to fail, you are on theright track, test it for power and if it has power obviously the motors bad, we sell them much cheaper then saturn with a full year warranty if you need one, let me know, thanks, Joey from 6th pup

sweet, i think im going to diag the motor and why my squirter only works when it wants to lol

LOL the squirter can be a number of things but your dead on with how to diagnose the rear motor, by testing for power to it first! but the rear wier can be a kinked hose, faulty motor on the rear tank etc, let me know f\when and if you find what you need, anytime you need a part were going to blow saturn out of the water price wise and were the only saturn yard that stores all important parts indoors out of the weather, hell the RAFTERS of my shop look like a saturn FACTORY LOL, stuff like fenders, door skins etc that take to much room on shelfs we store up in the rafters.
all parts like wiper motors, power window motors etc we take the time to test, again, unlike fly by night yards or hack shops....
