Dear listers, 

        I'm watching this thread closely hoping for some trouble shooting tips.  I have the same van as Jeff with a rear wiper problem.  I can hear a hum in the back when it is turned on  but no wiper movement and no fluid spray.  If someone has a trouble shooting suggestion I'll be glad to follow the steps.
