It is under the wiper arms.It is under the wiper arms.
The wiper arms have disconnected from the wiper motor. How do you reconnect them?
* Remove the windshield wiper arms * Remove the cowl cover * Disconnect the electrical connectorr from the wiper motor * Detach the wiper motor/linkage assembly from the cowl * Remove the wiper motor retaining bolts and remove the motor
You must first remove the wiper arms. then, remove the screws holding the black plastic grill under the wiper arms. This will expose the motor. You will then need to disconnect the wiper arm transmission linkage from the motor, the remove the three bolts holding the motor on. Install in reverse order.
There is a switch inside the wiper motor that identifies the home spot for the wipers. If you have intermittent wipers there is also a controller for that. Either can give you problems but more likely the wiper motor switch. The wiper motor switch usually is not a separate part (comes with wiper motor assy.) Oh yeah, 1 other thing, be sure the wiper arms are installed correctly on wiper motor.
You will have to remove the wiper arms, then remove the cowl, and then the wiper motor.
Fuse blown Wiper switch faulty wiper motor faulty both wiper arms have come loose on the spindles.
Under the cowl (where the wiper arms go in)
Take off the bolts at the bottom of the wiper arms and you may have to wiggle the arms back and forth to work the wiper arms off.
Remove the wiper arms from the car. Remove bezel (trim piece) under the wiper arms. disconnect the wiper motor from the connector arms and wiring. Remove bolts and the motor should come out. When installing a new motor make sure the motor is at the proper position of its wiping cycle so that the wipers will start and stop at the proper place on your windshield.
The wiper arms have a small clip under them that pushes to the side, then the arms pull off. The motor is under the cowling, remove the cowling to gain access.
