Hi, My wipers are moving in a jerky motion and sometimes not at all.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Check the switch connections on the steering column firstly, then try the wiper relay to eliminate that and if its not that then could be a short inside the motor itself or a loose connection, when my wipers went loopy to it to an auto electrician charged me an hours labour £30 and tested all the wiper circuit told me where the problem was straight away saves alot of time and hassle for the sake of £30.
