Electrical Problems

[jcross]

could really use a hand here, rolling in a 98 Pathfinder SE... 2 days ago during the rain, wipers stopped working but could hear the truck tryin to give out power. The compass also went out on top. Took a look under the hood but Don't see fried wires or blown fuses.

 

Honestly kinda stuck on this one, I know bikes not 4wd stuffs All help is appreciated!

When you say "trying to give power", what does that exactly mean? Do you hear a relay clicking or hear the motor?

I hear the motor

Taking a stab at the wiper problem: sounds more like a mechanical problem. Either the nut on the wiper's rotor is loose, or the internal gears on the motor assembly are worn.

 

I'd start with the checking the nut in the center.

 

As for the compass, maybe check out the owner's manual for the calibration process. Does the temperature display?
