winshield wiper stuck
i have a 2000 f-150 and the passenger side wiper is not working. when i turn wipers on, it just sits there and jerks when trying to wipe, as if its stuck. I guess the wiper motor is working because i can see it jerk during the cycle Drivers side is fine. It happened when i changed the my wiper blades . Any help would be appreciated

Make sure wipers are fully returned to their off position.
Pop off the little plastic cover that covers the wiper arm nut.
Reposition the wiper if needed(remove nut, lift wiper arm, push back down onto spline in correct position)
Tighten the nut(don't strip the threads), put plastic cover back on.
If that is your problem, check/tighten the working wiper.
If you live with snow/ice, free your wipers before turning them on(easier on the motors)
