Hi! Not sure if I'm correct here, just joined the group.
A solid 2 months ago I bought a lovely 1997 300ZX Z32 in a beautiful purple color. It's been a great car so far and I love it with all my soul as it's the first sports car I've owned since I am only 20 🤣
I did encounter a problem yesterday after work though. My front windshield wipers always worked with no problem, showing no signs of giving up. Then, on my way home from work, as I turned them on in the rain, they swiped once and then stopped working. I pulled over to check if turning the car on and off would solve it, which it didn't. I was able to freely move them around but as soon as they reached the top position (vertically infront of my view), they blocked there completely.
I replaced the fuse and checked the relay, both of which don't seem to have any issues. When I try to turn the wipers on, all I hear is the motor or the relay seemingly clicking twice before going quiet.
The washers however work, and tge rear wiler as well with no issues.
What could the problem be?

I'd just like to say that changing the front rack bushes is a really pain in the arse!:mad:
It took just a couple of hours to replace the front & rear drop links & also the front ARB bushes.
It took a whole lot longer to replace the rack bushes, or should I say the rack bush.
The passenger side takes 15minutes to replace, the drivers side is the problem.
Very awkward, getting the old bush out was a PITA, fitting the new one was a PITA, getting the bracket back on was a PITA!:cursing:
The only tip I have is to leave the passenger side unbolted as it allows the rack a small amount of movement which helps only a little.
Ah well, another couple of jobs well done, slow but sure.:)
