Hello, all! I'm hoping someone might be able to help me. My rear wiper quit working a while ago and I've finally decided to fix it!
I checked the fuse for continuity and it was good. I then checked for power to the motor and there isn't any, so my next idea was to check the switch. Should this be my next step and if so, how do I get the switch out? It's right above the center console in my 2000 Cherokee.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Just an FYI, I'm not very mechanical. If you gave the task to a chimp or me, the chimp would probably understand it better! Lol.

Thanks!
Chris

 

it's probably your motor.

i've replaced a few and so have everyone i know that drives an xj.

 

Remove the radio bezel, pull out from the bottom. The rear wiper switch panel can be removed with a few screws.

 

Thanks! I'll give that a try!

 

No power to the motor? Inspect the flexible wiring between hatch and chassis. Known problem spot.

 

I second that one. I had the same problem.
