I have a 2008 Kia Sedona EX. I was keying the windshield wipers as needed while driving in light rain and they stopped working between one use and the next. They do not work on any setting.

I hope it is just a blown fuse, but cannot find a front wiper fuse to check, only a relay. Does my type of vehicle perhaps not have wiper fuses? Not sure if I'm just missing it because it's called something different than I'm expecting.

The wiper relay fuse will be under the hood. It should be a 30amp fuse. This may or may not be your problem but would be the first place to look.

SOURCE: windshield wipers quit working on 2003 chevrolet trailblazer. relays and fuses are okay.

There were some issues with ignition switches in those vehicles.It is easy to change and does not cost but about $30. Remove the column covers, unplug the switch, and depress the 2 white tabs holding it in place. Good Luck

SOURCE: windshield wipers don't work.Fuse is good.

Hello Firerocker.
If your washer motor works there is power in the circuit and ground.
The wiper motor housing needs to be grounded.
If neither one works check for power on the green wire leading into the motor. If nothing there your switch may be bad.
If there is power to the green wire then check for power on the gray wire on low wiper speed and power on purple on high speed.
Here is a diagram if you need it.

Hope this gets your wipers going again.

SOURCE: I have a 2005 KIA Sedona, and the front wipers

I have 2002 Sedona, under the cowl the wiper linkage has a ball & socket that attaches the wiper linkage to the motor. Once in heavy snow this connection popped,I just snapped it back together and had no problem since.

The windshield wipers on my 2003 Sedona stopped working and you can hear a knocking noise every minute or so. they move freely by hand. the back wiper works fine.

You need to remove the front panel under the windscreen under the bonnet and check if wiper links are connected.

Windshield wipers stopped working

First check the fuse, if its ok, than try to listen if the wiper motor is working, if you can hear it working than the last thing is to strip the front and check if the wiper links or pivots are in place. they do pop out after some years of service.
