Question Wipers not working

Hey guys, I have been having some issues with my wipers. I recently took my car to get serviced (they replaced a pulley on my motor) and it immediately started having electrical issues when I got it back. Somehow the issues managed to fix themselves but originally my back turn signals weren't working, the headlights would stop working occasionally, my check engine light/long light/break light indicator was on my dashboard, the engine's fan wouldn't turn off, and my interior lights weren't working. As happy as I am to see that it's now magically working, my wipers have now decided not to work. They won't turn on on any setting. Does anyone know what might be wrong or what steps can I take to test them? They were working while the rest of these issues were happening.

Thanks for all your help!!

If I took my car to the dealer to have something replaced and started having electrical issues afterwards, I would immediately take it back to the dealer to have them address the issue. They shouldn't charge you either.

Absolutely take it back there as soon as possible to show them the issues you are having. The longer you wait, the harder it is to establish a connection to the work they did.

From your description it sounds like they maybe pinched/damaged a wire or loosened a ground somewhere. Those issues with lights coming on the dash and lights not working probably won't solve themselves. Good chance that will come back.
