Please help. In my 93 500sel, one of the headlight wipers do not move anymore, and is stuck in an awkward position, pointing straight up. I try pushing it down and it doesnt give. I can hear the motor go off when I do it again, and the other headlight wiper moves fine. Could it be jammed somehow? I plan on removing the nut tomarrow, and putting it back into place, is this recommended? What should I do, I am getting mad...

sounds like a gear has snapped inside. new motor assembly time im afraid.

prob due to shaft siezing...

How much does this usually run for? I probably will not change it though. I just removed the wipers and readjusted it to look like it works fine. Its good enough for me.
