Make sure the wiper is free to move. Mine had seized up from salt and other crap. Whilst the motor is overload protected, best not to let it go on for too long. Lift the tailgate glass to check freedom of movement - I had to apply oil as close as possible to the outer spindle where it goes into the bearing and work it till it became free.
