Windscreen Wiper Oddity

[cube101]

Hello all,

I have a quick questions i was hoping someone may be able to answer.

Just recently the windscreen wipers on my KA (02) seem to have gone on a go slow. They work okay but are only running at about 50% of there usual speed??? any ideas what may be causing this??? could it be the extreem cold??

any help appreciated

sounds like it the cold weather

i would run them & squirt some wd40 on the mech under the bonnet to try to remove any water & loosten it all up

otherwise it may burn the wiper motor out.

sounds as it maybe a dry linkage that's iced up
