that clicking is a circuit breaker , you have a short circuit in wiper , most likely where enameled wires from winding leave motor casing . If anyone moves those around the old insulation sleeve crumbles , one scrape of wire on sharp frame edge it is shorted Has wiper motor been messed with lately ? sometimes with slow fastidious work you can unsolder or detach wire(s )and slip very small shrink sleeve over them , slide into motor along the wire as far as you can .Then a quick shrink ; see Bob M tech section how to test motor on bench ; it is tricky , not what you think However that fix of sleeves means moving wires, all the sleeves typically crack and fall off , 4-5 of them from memory This usually happened to me trying to fix park switch or its cam stuck fast by that damn white lube , hard as a rock Remember to heed FSM warning ( read it) never to open motor or take apart in parked position , shut off by key with the wipers up on glass not parked Of course short could be in wiring or harness , I have never been that lucky Use of thermal breaker ( the click) in wipers instead of fuse is in case trapped by ice , it protects motor from burnout , or should , as park cycle or initial start up out of park will keep trying . once problem like that is cleared wipers should work again , unlike fuse , in which case no wipers good luck john On Jan 24, 2026, at 11:14 AM, 'Matt Allyn' via Chrysler 300 Club International <chrysler-300-club-international@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: -- For archives go to http://www.forwardlook.net/300-archive/search.htm#querylang --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Chrysler 300 Club International" group.
