I was coming back from the city last night & it began raining.  Everything
was going smoothly then the driver's side windshield wiper started going
crazy.  It'd go up & wipe, but then it would get stuck & not come back down.
  After helping it back down for several minutes I finally gave up & just
let it wedge itself up there.  For the rest of the trip I was driving having
to look out the passenger's side window - obviously not a safe thing.

I'm not sure what caused this & was hoping someone would know what to do
from experience.  My best guess is something with the teeth for the wiper
arm itself.  I was thinking I could take the arm off, put some plumber's
epoxy around the little knob that the wiper connects to, then slide the
wiper back on causing the epoxy to mush between the two, harden, & hopefully
make the arm work properly.  Please let me know something I can do & pmail
me seeing as I am in digest mode.  Thanks a bunch.
