SOURCE: changing the cabin air filter on a Saturn L300
Read through to the end of this wiper motor replacement story. Your job will entail everything except the wiper motor.
I had the same problem in my LW200. As the other poster indicated a new
wiper motor will do the trick. This is an easy fix. Remove the wiper
arms, pry up the plastic center cap and remove the nuts holding the
arms down then pull them off. A soft prying nudge from underneath will
help as they are splined shafts. Raise the hood, put a large deep well
socket on over the splined shafts and remove the 2 large nuts holding
the trim panel on. Pull up and off the long rubber which runs along the
front of the trim panel, watch there is a sharp edge underneath. Now
you can gently pull off the trim panel, remembering to lift it over the
splined shafts. Mechanism is right there, remove 3 screws and unplug
wiring. Take wiper motor off the linkage, swap with a new one from advance
auto, about 100 bucks, reinstall in reverse order. Note there is a
stamping on the linkage telling you where the pivot arm should be for
the rest or stopped position and if you ignore that your wipers will be
out of whack. While you are in there you may want to change the cabin
air filter as well as it will be right in front of you.

cabin air filter is either behind glove box or on passenger side of windage tray, under the plastic cover where the windsheid wiper arms come out. yes you can if the vehicle is actually equiped with one, sometimes they arent,even though parts retailer show that they are.
