Wiper failure

Hi! I have a 1988 Chevy 1/3 ton 2 wheel drive, with 491 thousand on it.....I worked for a large Chev dealer, until I retired 2 years ago, this was the parts truck, put into service from new in '88. My problem is, the driver side wiper quit in a rainstorm today, how do I get in to access the wheelbox, or cable and gear, whichever it has...your comments would be appreciated..Davelj

Remove the wiper arms, open the hood, remove all the screw for the grate between the firewall and the windshield(about 6-8 screws), look inside, sounds like the linkage from the motor to the wiper arm wore out. Change it put it back together and have a good retirement
