wiper motor easy repair

As with many members of the forum i had problem with front Wiper Motor not working.
this appears to be a common problem with a simple solution.
simply run a new earth wire from any of the 3 wiper motor mounting bolts (accessed by removing plastic air vent on bonnet).
connect other end to any good earth point/bolt in engine bay.
this worked perfect for me and is well worth a try before paying for expensive replacement.
i will post photos if required.
