Front Windshield Wiper Motor Assembly 🚗☔

This unit powers the driver and passenger wipers, restoring clear vision in rain, snow, or road spray. It is essential for safe driving; without a strong, steady sweep, visibility drops and reaction time suffers.

Why it’s needed

Moisture, worn brushes, tired bearings, or a seized linkage can overload the motor. Replacing the complete assembly brings back quiet operation, correct sweep angle, and factory speed settings with reliable parking at the cowl.

How it works ⚙️

A 12V DC motor drives a reduction gearbox. The output crank moves the wiper link set, converting rotation into a back‑and‑forth motion across the glass. An internal park switch returns the arms to the bottom edge when you switch off. The sealed housing resists water and dust for long life.

When it fails ⚠️

Symptoms include slow or uneven wipes, intermittent stopping mid‑stroke, only one speed working, grinding noise, blown fuse, burnt smell, or no movement. Ignoring it risks sudden loss of vision in wet weather and heat damage to wiring.

Install tips ✅

Disconnect battery, mark arm positions, torque arm nuts correctly, lightly grease pivots, and verify linkage moves freely before final tightening.
