I took the cap off the turn signal/wiper/washer lever. When I pulled out a large spring and plastic part, a smaller bronze spring came out. I cannot tell where the bronze spring goes. The wipers do not work.

The white plastic part has copper contacts. It fits over a stem along with the large spring. The copper spring is a few millimeters in diameter and about an inch or two long.
