I need some help with my windshield wipers.. My wipers were frozen to the windshield and me not thinking i turned them on. well they started going crazy once they got unstuck. then when we turned them off, they wouldnt turn off. finally when they did turn off they wouldnt come back on. i thought maybe it was the wiper motor, but when i flip the switch for the wipers i can hear the motor, but the wipers wont turn on..can anyone help?

a lot of GM vehicles have a wiper module, which is a plastic plate that unbolts from the motor and the electrical module sits inside. if you have this replace the module. if not then the motor and module are one unit and the whole motor will need replacing.
