Greg, cause of failure is air leaking past the paddle due to the rubber being worn flat.  Good second hand ones can be tested by holdin your thumb over the inlet pipe whilst operating the wiper by hand (switch in the on position) A good motor will provide resistance to turning.   I have some good ones if you get deperate - you have my email address   Ken McLean
