If on a rainy day you operated the wiper control and only one of the two wipers on the Fiat Punto worked, it is very likely that the arm controlling it has detached. Open the bonnet, at the base of the windscreen you will find the linkage that moves the wipers and identify the detached lever.

The cause of the detachment is almost always the wear of the bush that holds it but also allows for a small rotation. You can solve this problem using a metal clip easily found online, for example on Amazon with code B07Y1SPVM5 at a price of £9.77, which you will first mount on the pivot and then connect to the control arm.
