The rear wiper on my '84 Eagle wagon stopped working. According to the owner's manual and technical service manual, there's a 4.5 amp 12 volt circuit breaker on the fuse block. I found the removed the suspect piece, but I cannot find a replacement. I've looked online, eBay, Amazon. I went to Advance Auto and Napa, but to no avail. It is stamped GTE 4.5A-12V. In black letters 3JA. Does anyone have one or know where to get one? Is there a cross-reference or different part #. Thanks in advance.

In my experience with Eagle rear wipers, the likelihood of the circuit breaker being the problem is just about nil. What typically happens is the wire that is routed through the left-hand hatch hinge breaks at the flex point.  If you haven't checked that, do that first.  If anything, the circuit breaker is doing it's job.
