One window wiper works the other side just quit. Why is this.

Look for a plastic cover snapped down over the pivot. Lift that cover up and look for a nut that can be tightened. Be sure the arm is in the proper position when you do that.

If there's no nut to tighten, suspect a linkage popped apart.
