Rear wiper stops half way have to get out and either tap the rear of the wiper arm to lift the blade up of the window. There is a noise that the wiper is trying to move.

Hello,

This sounds to me like your wiper are may have been bent. If not then it sounds like your wiper motor may be going out. Down below I have included step by step instructions on how to replace it.
