Windshield wiper motors broken

I dont even know how to go about this... The driver side doesn't have enough enough to cycle but the pass side is fine... How the hell do I fix this?

Weirdest crap breaks on me, I swear.

haha this happened in my Miata...turned out a cresent wrench wasn't letting the internal arms move passed a certain point!

Not as bad as my friend leaving his air wrench connected the bottom of his 510 engine...and driving it a few hundred miles! I was like looking in his engine bay one day and was like "whoa, one of you parts says Craftsman on it! wait a sec..!"

Bruce, I have a windshield wiper motor here at AHQ if you need to replace it. You can have it for $20. Let me know.
