When I inherited mine, they didn't work at all. All of the bushings for the linkage were gone. Not shot, but completely missing.
Luckily, with a little knowledge I was able to fix them for under $10 by ordering new bushings, cleaning everything up, lubing the joints, and pressing together the linkage and transmission to the wiper arms and motor. I then added new wiper blades, but they are about n inch too long. So much for following mfg specs. I'll replace them next time with an inch shorter than they call for (I don't remember the sizes off the top of my head).
Yep, the bushings on mine were toast too. I found the pieces down off to the side, where the water is supposed to drain. It was one of the first things I replaced, when I bought the coach. Unfortunately they're an item that are made to disintegrate over time.
