How do you fix a wiper when one works and the other It broke wiping heavy snow on 1994 suburban?

1. Check the fuse. The first thing you should do is check the fuse for the wipers. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new one of the same amperage.

2. Check the wiper motor. If the fuse is not blown, the next step is to check the wiper motor. To do this, disconnect the electrical connector from the motor and use a multimeter to test for continuity. If there is no continuity, the motor is faulty and will need to be replaced.

3. Check the linkage. If the motor is working, the next step is to check the linkage. The linkage is the series of rods and arms that connect the motor to the wiper arms. Make sure that all the joints in the linkage are lubricated and that there is no damage.

4. Check the wiper arms. If the linkage is working properly, the next step is to check the wiper arms. Make sure that the arms are not bent or damaged and that they are securely attached to the linkage.

5. Check the wiper blades. If the wiper arms are working properly, the final step is to check the wiper blades. Make sure that the blades are not worn out or damaged and that they are properly attached to the arms.

If you have checked all of these things and the wipers still do not work, you may need to take your vehicle to a mechanic for further diagnosis.
