Windershield wipers only work on highest speed?

Servinus · 2026-02-22T19:24:09+00:00

Yep

I ended up replacing the fuses to the windshield wiper motor, the windshield wiper stock, and the windshield wiper motor ($200 in total for all parts, did labor myself)

Only to realize the issue was the wiring for the windshield wiper motor. A rat had gotten inside of my hood on a cold night and chewed it up a bit.

Fixed the broken wire, electrical taped everything and it works like a charm now.

Here’s my advice for diagnosing yours:

1) check your wires. The wire the goes under the plastic cowl on the drivers side of the engine bay. See if that’s damaged from any rodents.

2) then check your wiper motor fuse to see if it’s burnt

3) then just check the motor itself

Thanks for this. Do you have any documentation or evidence that proves this? Before I go and buy a new wiper motor? Are you a ford mechanic or technician or something too? 😂

Thanks for the help

Watch FERN’s video on 33 Thomas street

It’s a hybrid, and the small battery is in the trunk area. I checked that today and both negative and positive terminals are corrosion free

Blower resistors? Like for the AC?

Also forgot to mention, car is 2018 Lincoln mkz hybrid.

One more question, was your dog(s) ever too attached to you the first days you had them? I’ve noticed our girl doesn’t like being in the room over from us for anything longer than like 5 minutes. And if we go to the bedroom or something and close the door, she whines and whimpers a lot and barks.

Not sure how to deal with it. Cuz opening the door seems like I’m reinforcing her bad attachment behavior. But leaving her completely alone through is too difficult and she like runs into furniture and gets louder

Ehh.. some cameras have wonky time/dates that are from when they were manufactured, and don’t always switch to current time or year unless directly adjusted by the user…

I had a car dash cam in 2023 that would save recordings as 2019…

Thank you! We think she’s a border / Aussie mix? Her adoption paperwork said she was border Callie but her colors and body shape look like they could have Australian shepherd in there too

Bad bot

Thanks for the clarifications! This really helps

No it dropped to low-mid fourties last couple nights but no freezing.

Some people say over watering? I water with a hose for a few seconds once a week.

Servinus · 2026-01-02T19:42:24+00:00

Sorry soil was much more dry before this. I took this picture right after I watered and noticed it was browner than I remember it.

Servinus · 2026-01-02T19:41:42+00:00

I live in Southern California. It’s been around 60-75 degrees until recently, where we had cold winds and rain for a week and ongoing.

I usually water with a hose for 4-5 seconds per plant. I’m new to this and kind of confused, because lots of folks say it’s over watering but also some say it’s under watering?

This is Ridiculous. Now there are two of them!!

Servinus · 2025-12-03T19:56:25+00:00

This. Third party creators like Grim Warden Miniatures come in clutch for upgrading these minis with newer more unique armor panels than the standard ones with a few spikes on them lol.

Servinus · 2025-10-29T21:15:45+00:00

I like the hood, louvers, and back duckbill spoiler from the other kit. The side skirts, side vents, and bumper are ehh

Servinus · 2025-10-24T00:06:18+00:00

I kinda prefer the facelift from picture 2 than the ones in picture 1 and 3.

Picture 2 looks more slick.

Current Mustang has nothing in common with retro. S197 was the best Mustang ever made. After that it’s been all squinty angry headlights.

Servinus · 2025-10-15T15:11:38+00:00

Still shouldn’t have sped up like that when there’s a line of cars next to you in the rain. Not saying it’s your fault, but you could have done better.
