the front windshield wipers stop working. most of the time if you manually move them they will start again. Is the motor going out. If so how hard is it to replace.

What you have is a known problem. It is caused by the connection on the wiper motor circuit board breaking the solder joints. You can replace the entire motor OR just the board is available for about 20 dollars. I usually just replace the board myself. It only takes about 20 minutes to replace the board.
