Hey bud, on the C5 the wiper motor has three drain tubes under the motor, these tubes can get clog up with trash which leaves the wiper motor in water which can short it out. I removed these tubes and cut the ends off to make the drain holes bigger, however I still had to order another wiper motor(I got mine off ebay), so check to see if your wiper motor is under water.
