Hello.
My windshield wiper is not working on 96 Pathfider LE.
It was working few days ago, but when I tried to use it today, nothing happened. Even windshield washer is not working.

Which fuse is the one for wiper? Its not specified on the owner's manual, so I don't know which one to check!

All other accesories seem to be working fine. Even rear wiper works.

Where should I check first?
Thanks for your help!!!

When you lower the cover on the dash to expose the fuse block...pull it off and it has the fuse layout on the back ...it shows a 20 amp for the FR wiper in the 4th row...

For some reason, my cover doesn't have fuse layout...However, I did check 20amp fuse on the 4th row (thats the only 20amp fuse in the entire block) and it was still good.

So I still can't figure out whats wrong with my car.
Any other comments?
Thanks!

Use a volt meter to check for voltage on both sides of all fuses when the switch is turned on. You should be able to touch the metal contact that is exposed on the back of the fuse. Does it make any noise when you switch it on? Spray? I traced a lighting problem on a BMW for 15 minutes before the owner told me that all the lights went out one at a time. I replaced the bulbs and fixed the problem. I assumed that the problem had occurred all at once. Who would wait til every light on the front end (and some on the back) burned out to replace the bulbs?
