I tried to use my window wipers after a snow storm. I guess there was too much snow and they would not move. I ended up leaving them on......even know they were not moving. About 5 min. later I smelt a burning smell. Now my wipers will not work at all. Does anyone know what I should do and what went wrong? Is this something I can do myself?

 

The wiper motor is toast.

 

Is this something I can do myself? Where is the wiper motor located?Thanks

 

Yes you can do it yourself.
The wiper motor is just under the windshield.
You will have to take the wiper linkage off. The motor
is behind a mounting plate 3 bolts hold the plate in place.
this is for Disco II. It will help to post the year somethings
are much different from the Disco I to Disco II.
I just took a guess that you have a D-II.
My Alldata showed that a motor will run around $230.
