Hi can you help,

I have very little car knowledge,


this morning my car was completely ices over due to heavy icy weather conditions.

Once the ice cleared from car I switched on my wippers to try clear any remaning ice from my windscreen.

However my wipers do not work. it has been five hours now and the ice has completely gone from my car so I know they are not just froze/stuck.

have you any advice for me? if they are completely worn/gone how long does it take to fix in general, would it cost a lot? I only ask as so far this month i have spent over £800 between brakes and a new clutch.

Thanking you in advance

check the nuts and splines are good on the mounting.
