Wipers going funny - Welshy_Pete - 05-07-2013

My wipers awhile back were going abit funny. But today there clicking on auto 1. If you click down it will stick were you want the wipers on the screen. But on auto they will click and move abit. I can hear the relay but wandering is it the relay or motor or stalk?

motor


RE: Wipers going funny - Welshy_Pete - 05-07-2013

So far I've tried the relay, cleaned connections on the motor wiring.

It works fine on speed setting 2 and 3. But the auto 1 goes mad and 0 just moves it were you want it to go to.

take back off motor gear/tracks

clean tracks, remove old grease, replace with fresh grease.

Interesting worth a try then thanks.

Does anybody have a guide to getting the wiper motor in and out?

thanks

How many copper fingers are there ment to be 3 or 4?

I can see 3 but looks like one missing or a spare bit. But a 3rd one corroded away half left.

I got the motor working for abit and it moved in the right places. But there blown fuses so looks like a new motor will solve the problem now for sure.


RE: Wipers going funny - Welshy_Pete - 07-07-2013

I got a new wiper motor today and fitted on. The wipers are working fine now great news.


RE: Wipers going funny - Piggy - 07-07-2013

3 'fingers'...one being broken would be a major issue

good to know its fixed

I got 2 wiper motors good ones as well. Both have 3 fingers as well. Also checked the bushes there all fine to. I've greased them both up so I've got a spare one now as well.

The broken one the bushes and motor fine just needs the 3 fingers. But though if the others ever go I could cut the wires and swap the plate over with decent copper fingers haha.
