I own a 1992 chevrolet pickup truck and the windshield wipers sometimes work and sometimes won't. There is a recall on wiper motors, but it does not go back to that model year. I don't dare replace the motor with one from a junk yard because of the same problem and I am wondering if others are seeing this problem with 1992 models.

Since it doesn't rain much in phoenix az, this has only happened twice. While driving in a light rain, with the wipers set on intermittent, they quit operating after a period of time. Quite disturbing when you cannot see where your going. After pulling off of the highway and pausing for 20 min, the wipers may again work. Some times it takes a couple of hours. I have tested all of the wiper circuits via the service manual recommendation, with out finding a failure.
