Wipers Quit with Limited Icing
 

As a potentially dangerous issue, the wipers on my 2006 Murano stopped
working during limited icing. By this I mean they could not fully retract into the wells and there were chunks of ice on the arms, but they were moving (not stuck) when they stopped. The next morning they were OK.
I assume some sort of thermal overload? I need a *very complete*
explanation on how to prevent this in the future, and what happened
to begin with. The precip lightened up and I was able to get home
but just barely. (It was dark.)
If thermal overload, why did it take until the next morning to reset????? And what could I have done at the time (if anything) to
facilitate the resetting?? (I did get out and clear all the ice to no avail. Also shut the car down and restarted.)
Help much appreciated.

has it acted up since then or does it only happen when its snow and sleet?
