Wipers won't work but do work using wash mode

[Rockytherock]

My wipers won't work on my Z4 2005 2.5, they just stopped, but the wash mode work and blades move as well, I checked the fuses and seems fine, any idea how I fix this? thanks.

could be the grease in the motor problem, do a search for it, SK93 did a very good writeup.

Hi there!
OK. The wipers do work on wash mode (wiping left to right) however, the normal wiper's mode don't, I don't believe the motor is damaged, thus, What could be the problem? thanks.

well wash mode you pull towards you and normal mode you push the stork up, so maybe an issue with the stork going up??

That could be the problem Peddy - if there is a 'stork' stuck on the steering column. It needs a 'stalk' fitting.
