Anyone got any ideas before I start taking things apart?
Turned on my wipers, no problem then all of a sudden the drivers side stopped working , drive motor seems to still operate as it catches and moves the blade a little. My guess is a loose connection but it requires an odd shaped wrench, unlike the passenger side. Suggestions or comments appreciated.:help

Torx nut is loose. You need a special T80 security Torx socket.

For those who can't live without every tool that they may ever need lying in wait in their toolbox.
