Because rust slowly begins to grow on the wiper motor ball that is related to the linkage and that corrosion disintegrates the plastic female part that holds on to the motor and it causes to remove the linkage off, my suggestion, buy a new motor and linkage, it will save lots of hassle and time!

How do you change a 1982 dodge d150 wiper motor?

LMAO, you have one too? Are you certain the motor is bad? The linkage can come apart because of perished bushings. If the bushing fails, the motor will turn, but the wipers won't move. Check this before you buy a new motor that you can't return.To remove the motor, disconnect the power lead. Remove the three wiper motor mounting bolts. A gearwrench is the best tool to reach this tight spot. You may be able to pull the motor back enough to unfasten the crank. The crank is held by one nut. If you can't pull the motor back far enough and reach this nut, you will have to remove the upper cowl to reach the nut. To remove the cowl, remove the wiper arms. There's a retainer catch on the back side of the wiper arm that needs to be released as you pull up. You may need to use some PB blaster to free corrosion to get these loose. With the wiper arms off, remove the eight or so sheet metal screws. With the cowl removed you can reach the nut holding the crank. This is a good time to replace all of the wiper bushings, Doorman p/n 49440. These are plastic and on a 1982 they will be dry-rotted. These bushings will fail when it's raining and you're a long way from home, so replace them while you're replacing the motor. On mine, all four crumbled and fell apart.To remove them pry the joint apart. Remove the wiper linkage assembly and pivot posts as a unit. Make notes which side of each linkage arm receives the bushing. Each wiper pivot post has three mounting bolts. With the linkage out on the work bench, install bushings into the linkage arms using a socket for backup. Hammer them in until they latch into place. Once the bushings are installed in their holes, hammer the pivots into the bushing. These will also latch. Use a little bit of grease to ease the assembly. With all new bushings installed in the wiper linkage assembly, install the linkage assembly (all three links and the two posts) through the access holes starting on the passenger side. Slide it through into position and replace the three bolts at each wiper post. Fasten the linkage to the crank arm. Replace the cowl and install the wiper arms.

Why would your wipers on your 2000 Nissan Pathfiner fail?

The linkage that connects to motor shaft to the wiper blades uses a very small ball and cup setup. If you can hear the motor and a slight thud when the wipers are turned on, this would be the reason. You are going to need to open up the cowl under the hood, remove the arms, then you can see where the wiper assembly connects to the shaft coming from the passenger side of the car. All you need to do is snap the cup from the motor drive shaft back onto the wiper assembly. Reassemble the car, and you should be good to go.

Why do your front wipers fail to park?

Wiper motor cogs can wear down and fail to leave the wipers in the lowest position. If the wipers had encountered some resistance they can also slip. It could just be a simple fix.


1999 explorer passenger door will not unlock or open with power locks or manually from the inside?

It's probably a linkage problem INSIDE the door. Linkage may have come off when a retainer broke or possibly when someone used a "slim jim" to open the door. They are notorious for damaging internal door linkage. But door linkage retainers can fail even if you've never used a slim jim. The repair isn't typically TOO difficult, the worst part is getting the door trim off the inside.
