I seem to be having trouble with my wipers, I can squirt all the fluid i want on the windows, but nothing happens when I try to start the wipers (fuse) is fine. Pulled the unit from the steering colum and opened it and cleaned it out and replaced, but still no go.

I tried jumping connectors on the 8 din socket for it, but was only able to get more windshield washer fluid.


I wish this was just a faulty wiper unit, but it seems to be something mroe problamatic. Any ideas?

 

Does the motor sound like its going when you put the windshield wipers on? There's a joint between the motor and the wiper arms that falls apart sometimes, mine did, and has been doing so frequently...

 

nope, no sound. if i remove the unit from the steering coluum, I can jump the last two nodes on the harness and case washer fluid to spray out, but thats about it.


(that dosent even happen when the unit is connected

 

Test the plug for power @ the motor !

 

the harness that connects to the motor was MELTED I ended up replacing it with a j/y one yet the motor still wont work.


So, I have a dead wiper motor
