Windshield Wiper Broke

My M818 has air powered windshield wipers. I thought my driver side windshield wiper was broken. It turns out the little button by the exhaust pipe that parks the blade was stuck in. I held the park button in on the passenger side and the pressure built up enough to pop the park button out on the driver side. Then the wiper worked.

I didn't find this when I searched so maybe this will help some one.

About once a year I put a couple drops of air tool oil in the the inlet of my wiper motors, seems to keep them running smooth.

Thanks, on my M931, my driver's wiper is working fine, but my passenger side is not. Is the button that you are referring too, look like a wedge, on my wiper motor it does. It is right in front of the exhaust pipe, correct? If it is, it doesn't move, probably to many layers of paint.

Also, which is in inlet hose for oiling, the front or rear. Thanks for the great tips, hope it works, so I can get my State of NH vehicle inspection this week!
