I have a 2000 vw jetta, when i turn on wiper blades i can hear the motor but the blades are not engaged
Wiper motor arm disengaged or slipping on drive shaft.
Wiper arms slipping on splines at pivot point of wiper arm.,,,more likely.
Wipers are held to drive splines with a 10mm nut.
Make sure wipers are in in 'parked' position buy turning on ignition and making sure wiper switch is OFF.
Turn off ignition.
Pry off the black round plastic cover off the arm where it attaches at the splines. ( Drive splines on lower windshield cowl.)
Tighten nut/s.
