Help, windscreen wiper problem

Hi i was wondering if anyone could shed any light on this before i give up and take it to a garage. My wipers have stopped moving, i can hear the motor going but the wipers dont budge. I have to stop get out and manually push them back and forth (very annoying)
Its a 52 plate tdi if thats of any relevance lol.
Cheers Emma

quite a common problem emma...the linkage arms detach from the motor can be repaired if you've got the time/patience...do a search for wiper linkage and you'll find plenty more info...

Thank you, i'll give it a go not got much patience though:doh:
