Ea Wiper Motor Upgrade?


Recommended Posts

What about them are you trying to change?  I never had trouble with any of mine.  I still  have the original stainless steel blade holders, that most people replaced with the universal things years ago.  None of those that I ever had worked as well as the original ones, but that has nothing to do with the motor.

Youd be a bit dry after thirty years of no lubrication!! I removed cowling grille panel and removed pivot of one end, cleaned it all up greased it, greased the other without pulling it out. Think I drilled a lube hole in the side. Work an absolute dream. Never had wiper motor trouble as such ...

just after helping someone learn difference between seals, gaskets and O rings you go and call a screen seal a gasket !!

 

My wipers sped up after all pivot points lubes up, new blades, and rain x on screen always helps

My 1991 Loyale was slow on the wiper also.

So i added a ground wire from the wiper gearbox to the strut tower.

FIXED it quite well.
