Broken windshield wipers

So this isn't really 4.6L but its still slightly car related and i dont know of any 88bonneville forums so i figure you guys would be my best bet. My winter cars (88 bonneville, 222k and still going strong) windshield wiperes were wiping away the other day, windshield had some ice on it, and suddenly they just stop dead in the middle of the windshield. They've been broken ever since. What do you think broke and how hard/expensive do you think it'd be to replace it? I was finally able to push them down but they wont go when you turn the knob so yeah........................any advice short of selling/blowing up the car?
