wiper motor

[mikel003003]

My wipers have been getting progressively worse I now have stop ,stop, very slow and stop. Seriously though slow works ok but 'fast' needs a push to get it going before stopping again, it usually sorts itself out with use but I fear this may be the time for a rewind, just thought I would try and get some ideas before pulling it out also can anyone advise me if its an mot fail ?

Thanks I will have a poke round the wireing , I cant imagine the slow and fast settings would have a seperate earth ?

Sadly I couldn't access the photos (probably because my phone has limited internet ) I will however head to the scrap yard, thanks for the advice . Did you have to remove the dash or just pull it forward ? Or perhaps its Easyer to get to than it looks at a glance , do you have the intermidiate setting now too ? . I have also been able to establish that the fast setting does not do more than a few inches of travel even after a push thanks everyone again

Thanks again

Thanks for all your help , to be honest I have done very little more , except fiddle with the electrical conections , I have established that contrary to previous posts mine is a lucus motor, any ideas ??????? Also was able to confirm that slow works fine so figure the fault is not with the motor itself , what is it that effects the speed , is it just a stronger currant ?

Thanks yet again, will have another look at the weekend, but I also have oil pressure woes. Where to begin .....

It's working fine now ??????? Intermitant = electrical ?
