If one side works, that tells us the circuit to it is good
if the driver side is not moving, it could be loose at the wiper motor connection to the Wiper Arm or the Wiper Arm
splines ( teeth) has sheared and the wiper arm will need to be replaced?
what is the mileage on it now /

Hi, I have a 2014 Chevy Equinox and one windshield wiper works and one does not. Unfortunaley, it is the driver side that doesn't work and I got caught in a bad rain storm the other day. Mechanic's Assistant: Have you checked the fuses? Do you know if there is power to the wiper motor? I do not know how to do that, but since the other wiper works, I assume the motor is okay? Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Equinox yourself? What have you tried so far? Nothing yet, I am just trying to get an idea of what it may be Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you? No, thank you
