Windsheild wiper issues

My wipers will work occassionaly but keep freezing up and stopping with a clicking noise. If I complete remove the wiper blade they will run without stopping. The resistance from the blades is stopping the motor from working. It tries to run but it just clicks, Wiper motor? What do you think?

Wow. Usually people complain about not having enough resistance.
If it were me I'd pull the wiper cowl and see if there isn't something binding in the wiper transmission, from the motor to the wiper blade mounts.
And I'd check the grounds on my gauge panel. Since the wiper motor grounds thru the switch to the gauge panel.

Re: Windsheild wiper issues

So I removed the wiper assembly and the ends are very loose and might be binding up.
