Rain... Wipers... No Wipe :-)

[madaboutmotors]

Hi All,

With the downpour today, my wiper motor decided it had had enough.

I'm trying to remove the motor, I've removed the expansion tank to get at the motor what do I need to do to remove the wiper motor completely?

Any advice/help would be most welcome...

You sure its the motor and not the controller? The controllers go often, especially when you overcharge the battery when the cars switched off of course.

If you're still having trouble then email me offline. I took some digital photos of the steps involved in removing and servicing the motor which may be helpful.

Cheers for the offer.

Took the motor apart to find that the electric contacts we not enaging and sticking. Refitted contacts and put the motor back together and bingo, wipers working again.

Also went and applied RainX to the windscreen.

"I can see clearly now the rain has gone..."
