Need Help! Wiper motor issues

Post by Orionsbelt »

The wiper motor has gone from running fine one day to just barely or not the next. Everything was working fine a couple days ago. They'll move if I initially pull them over with my hand...they run slow and only for a few wipes then they stop.

Is the motor burnt out? Can I fix this and how? And where is the wiper motor on this thing?

Thanks, Orion

Is the nut tight holding the wiper arm onto the motor shaft?

It's not the motor. It's the wiper arm assembly. You need to remove it and drill into the part that houses the rotating part. Drill just deep and wide enough to put the plastic spay tip from a wd40 nozzle. But use chain lube. This is a common thing in the imports. Water gets behind the wipers and corrode the wiper arm assemble.
Smile, your boss will wonder.
