I've an 03 P5 that the rear wiper arm just quit, its seems to be getting juice , but all of a sudden now it won't move. It can wash the rear window OK! Any sugestions? P.S. How do you remove the damn thing without crackiing the glass?
 
Get a new rear motor. Take the arm off from the outside. THen take the plastic cover off the inside and remove the motor. Replace and see if that works.
While you are at it, get the Mazda 6 rear wiper arm. Nicer look.
 
Before buying a motor, remove the cover and see if the bolt simply needs to be tightened.

+1 on doing the Mazda6 wiper conversion!!!
 
I've got a similar problem. Will check the bolt, but also, how about the fuse? Have to bust open the fuze box and see if that is an issue. Haven't done this before. Are they labeled fairly clearly?

Thanks
