View Full Version : Windshield wiper motor
Well, my driverside wiper decided to basically quit working today. Can anyone explain how to get to the motor to replace it? The passenger side is working, so I expect there are 2 different motors? Anybody done this before?
Thanks
I thought about this for a little bit and realized that the wiper arm was just loose, tightened it down. Working fine now. LOL

good deal!
But FYI, a junkyard would've been the best place to find one. That way, you'd get it cheap, and if it was a UPullit type place, you'd know how to install it without screwing up your car ;)

..and for future reference.. there is only one wiper motor. I believe it's on your passenger side, in the hood at the top of the firewall.. looks like a cylinder of some sort. It connects to both wiper arms with rods.. very simple mechanical device :cool:
