    Wiper transmission? Or more likely the wiper motor?
    Parts and labor prices vary significantly from one area to another so use this as a guide not as fact:
    You could maybe find that motor for $50-60 or as high as $130+, depending on new or rebuilt, warranty or no warranty.
    As far as labor: Expect somewhere around two hours labor plus or minus to do the diagnosis and do the install.
    2.0 X (shop labor rate)
    +
    (Price of part)
    =_________
    Final cost to have your wipers working as normal... $??
    What is your mechanic quoting you for that job?
