Windshield wiper

So the other day i drove about 25 mins in the pooring rain, wiper worked about 20mins of that duration with no problems at all. Then it just stoped.. i returned it to the downward position and it hasnt moved since. That was about a week ago. Any input? Thanks in advance!

No not at all. I was thinking that somthing may have gotten stripped. I can move the blade manualy but di dont wanna break it more that it is so i leave it. Blade had a little bit of resistance when moved.
