Haha, it does feel like a design flaw sometimes, but you can definitely narrow it down before tossing money at it! Just beware of pay-per-hour mechanics—they can rack up costs fast!

I’ve heard some dealerships charge exorbitantly for even simple repairs. If you’re going for a professional, make sure to get a second opinion! Prices can really vary.
Just to add, if you’re considering DIY, make sure you have the right tools. A multimeter comes in handy when checking electrical components. It’s not rocket science but gets technical!
True that! A good multimeter can save you both time and frustration. I once thought I had a bad motor—but it turned out to be a simple fuse issue!
Is it wrong that I’m rooting for a DIY fix? There’s something satisfying about fixing it yourself. If it’s under $100 in parts, it’s probably worth the risk!

Not at all! It’s like a little project to add to your weekend. Just make sure to have a good plan before diving in—nobody likes a wiper-less drive!
One last thought—if all else fails, sometimes it’s just easier to pass it on to the pros. But only if you’re really not comfortable opening up your car!
