How do you fix windshield wipers that wont move after they tried lifting snow on 99 Ford F150?

1. Check the fuse. The windshield wiper fuse is located in the fuse box under the hood. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new fuse of the same amperage.

2. Check the wiper motor. The wiper motor is located under the cowl, near the base of the windshield. If the motor is not working, you may need to replace it.

3. Check the linkage. The linkage is the mechanism that connects the wiper motor to the wiper blades. If the linkage is broken or disconnected, you may need to replace it.

4. Check the wiper blades. The wiper blades may be worn out or damaged, which can prevent them from moving properly. If the wiper blades are worn out, replace them with new ones.

Here are some additional tips that may help you fix your windshield wipers:

* If the wiper blades are frozen, you can try pouring hot water over them to thaw them out.

* If the windshield wiper motor is making a noise, you may need to lubricate it.

* If you are unable to fix the windshield wipers yourself, you may need to take your vehicle to a mechanic.
