Some Dodge Dart owners report experiencing issues with their windshield wipers not functioning despite having a good motor and fuses. These problems may be attributed to a malfunctioning multifunction switch on the steering column, which is a common cause of wiper issues. Additionally, if only one wiper is operational, a loose pivot nut could be preventing proper movement, even when the motor is functioning well. In cases where there is no response when attempting to activate the wipers, a failed wiper motor may be the culprit. Some owners also notice slow or uneven movement of the wiper blades, indicating potential motor issues. Furthermore, damage to the ribbon cable within the multifunction switch can lead to wiper malfunctions, often requiring the replacement of the entire assembly. Lastly, errors related to the rain sensor or the Body Control Module (BCM) may also affect wiper functionality. It is advisable for owners to investigate these areas if they have ruled out the motor, fuses, and mechanical obstructions.
