If it doesn't involve the cable near the pulley, a quick, simple repair would be to use an electric crimp connector between the two pieces of broken cable. The previous owner of a 1950 Pacemaker I owned had made this repair and it lasted at least the 29 years that I owned the car and worked just fine every time I used the wipers.0

You should be able to buy cable at your hardware store. You will then need two splices
with the new section around the pivot. Worked for me.0 -

Update, last week I went to Ace Hardware, bought some cable and two connectors and spliced the new cable in. I was lucky as the connectors were just out of reach of the pulley wheels. Wipers work just fine. Thanks for your suggestions, they helped. Richie.0
