If the windshield wipers on your BMW 3 Series have suddenly stopped working, the first thing to do is check the status of the respective fuse, which is shown in this video. As demonstrated, it is located in the fuse box inside the cabin, specifically behind the passenger glove compartment.

To access the box, open the glove compartment, rotate the two side latches, and detach it from the dashboard. The fuse in question is labeled F39 and is the first one on the left in the center row. If it is blown, make sure to replace it with a fuse of equivalent specifications.
