what kinda car? sounds like the arm popped off the teeth and its only catching a little. could possible just push it back on and be good to go unless the teeth are stripped. to remove it your gonna want some kinda leverage, after any nuts are removed of course. i usually use a block of wood and a huge flat head screwdriver.
 
Car would help. Wiper transmissions always go bad this time of year. Sometimes it could be just the arm though. THe splines strip as said above.
 
got it off with a flat head screw driver. Didnt have a block of wood available. Its a 2000 grand prix gt and was hell n a half since the hood has to be popped to get to it

Could have opened the hood and accessed them from below the hood line.

Most auto parts stores sell the tool, heck most times you can use a battery terminal puller.
