My wiper motors are clogged with ancient grease. Has anyone figured out how to free them. WD 40 didn't help.

Dis-assemble them, clean them and lubricate them with fresh lubricant. Personally, I like some of the synthetics like Dow Corning O-ring lubricant. It won't thicken in colder temperature so the wipers will work in all temps.
I have always had success taking them apart. Make sure you check any inlet or outlet tubes going into the motor. Mud wasps normally like to curl up in there and die, blocking the tube. |

Couple years ago Brian Asbury was selling the official Trico tool for opening up these wiper bodies. He also had NOS paper gaskets and Trico grease to go back inside once they were clean. Might be worth contacting him to see if he still had some stuff.
