1998 Ram Wipers Arent working since windshield replacement
Had the windshield replaced, now the wipers don't work. When rotating the switch I can hear and feel the relay click, but the motor never engages. I swapped the relay checked the fuses. I would think it was a bad motor if it did not work prior to the windshield. Any thoughts are appreciated!!!

That would be great but that happened before I got the truck. I traded an old hot tub for the truck, and the guy I got it from had the windshield replaced the month prior, and they haven't worked since.
Honestly I didn't think it was pertinent as to when it was broken, the point was it was working before the replacement, and the day after it was not. The connections are all still connected, nothing is bent or broken, the motor doesnt even try to turn. Now I haven't taken it all apart as I don't need to drive the truck, but I have seen others say that it maybe a missing ground wire? I climbed up there and did not see any ground wires or anything loose I can see the harness connected to the motor.
Grab the service manual for your truck from this thread. Make sure you are getting power where you should, and the ground is good.
