Installation Recommendations
Recommended For: Professional mechanics and competent DIYers with basic electrical and trim removal experience.
- Work Time: Approximately 30–60 minutes depending on access and trim removal.
- Basic Tools: Torx/hex/socket set, trim tools, screwdriver, penetrating lubricant, pliers.
- Procedure Summary: Remove the rear wiper arm (cover cap and retaining nut), remove inner tailgate trim to access the motor, unplug the electrical connector, unbolt the motor assembly from the tailgate, remove the linkage if necessary and install the replacement motor. Reassemble in reverse order and park the wiper in the correct resting position.
- Precautions: Disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting work to avoid short circuits and accidental motor activation. Protect painted surfaces when levering off the wiper arm and trim panels. After installation, check the full sweep and parking position and, if required, adjust the wiper arm alignment.
Troubleshooting Tips Before Replacement
- Verify Fuse And Switch: Check the vehicle fuse for the rear wiper circuit and verify operation of the wiper switch/relay before condemning the motor.
- Check Wiring And Connector: Corrosion or damaged wiring can mimic motor failure. Inspect for water ingress and poor contact.
- Manual Movement Test: With power removed, try moving the linkage by hand to check for mechanical seizure.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
Common failure causes include water ingress and corrosion of the motor or connector, worn carbon brushes inside the motor, seized gearbox or linkage due to rust, and mechanical overload from frozen or obstructed wiper arms. Vehicles used in coastal regions or those exposed to road salt are more prone to accelerated deterioration. Failures usually occur after many years of use or following prolonged exposure to moisture.
Quality And Value Notes
