Thanks guys, it may be a few days before I get it out. Thanks Michael, I will also check the voltage at the motor. I did notice a ton of corrosion on the dummy shaft. Looks like an o ring is supposed to seal it from water but time takes it's toll. I did remove the o ring and squirt some lube in the opening.

I hear something slipping, at first I thought it was the wiper arm slipping on the shaft, but I visually confirmed that is not happening, so it's something internal. Oh boy, and it's in such a fun access place. I am just laughing cause I know if I tear the console and panels out of the way to get to the motor, I need to go ahead and fix the vacuum actuators on the dash HVAC plenum. One project begats another.
