More on How to fix Headlite Wipers Posted by TonyJ [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: How to fix Headlite Wipers, TonyJ ![]() ![]() |
If your motors are completely dead, Check the fuses first.
When the polyfuses start to go, it is most noticeable in warmer weather when they more-easily reach their "open" state. The usual symptom is that the blades annoyingly stop at odd angles. This could also be caused by dirty contacts, but my most common experience has been that the problem will return soon until you replace the polyfuse. It's not expensive and little extra effort once you have the motor out and apart. You could also stick a piece of metal in place of a polyfuse, but that would risk frying the motor if the blades ever encountered extra drag, e.g. are frozen in ice.
If the motor is bad or there is a mechanical problem, you can find replacements in junkyards or buy new ones from one of our site sponsors. Good Luck and please share your experinces with the list.
