Windshield wipers broke!



Hi all,

Last night it was POURING out when I left work.  I jumped in to my trusty Imp, started her up (runs WAY better now on fast idle, with Dick B's help) turned on the wipers and CLUNK!, I hear what sounds like the drive shaft fall into the plenum.

No wipers!  Great! 

I get back out and grab the wiper, they both move REALLY easily!   So, now soaking wet, I carefully pull out and head home.  At least the two-year old Rain-X still works when I hit around 45MPH or so.

Think it's the shaft connecting the motor?  I can hear the motor run.  How hard is it to get at, and could it be a bolt that came loose?

I won't be able to look at it until Sunday, I will be on a camping trip.
