I am wanting to sell my car but there are a few things that need fixed first. 1. The wipers don't work. I can hear them trying to move but they won't. Any ideas? 2. The Drivers side door won't open from the outside? 3. The driver and passenger side windows roll up and down very hard. Takes several tries. Can this be fixed? 4. The drivers seat takes a lot of encouragement to move forward or back? Thank you for your time.

If you hear the wiper motor, chances are the linkage is disconnected. Remove the cowl at the base of the windshield to access the linkage. Check for disconnected or broken parts.

As far as the door, you need to remove the inner door panel to access the handle and linkage. Remove it to see what has happened there.

Are the windoes and seat electric or manual?
