About the Cardone Windshield Wiper Motor Product Line
The Cardone Windshield Wiper Motor line focuses on providing remanufactured motors that meet or exceed OEM specifications. These motors are engineered to restore proper wiper function and are designed to work with vehicles equipped with moisture sensors, ensuring compatibility with advanced rain-sensing wiper systems found on many Saturn models. The 40-101 part number is part of this line, offering a balance of quality and value for replacement needs.
Product Details and Features
This wiper motor features a blade terminal type for secure electrical connections and mounts directly to the vehicle using three mounting holes, simplifying the replacement process. It is designed to work with vehicles that may have moisture sensors, which monitor rainfall accumulation on the windshield to adjust wiper speed automatically. Note that this motor does not include a washer pump, so the existing pump must be retained or replaced separately.
Common Issues Addressed by This Wiper Motor
- Wiper motor failure causing intermittent or no wiper movement
- Wipers stopping mid-swipe or not returning to the park position
- Compatibility issues with moisture sensor-equipped wiper systems
- Wiper motor noise or irregular operation
- Wear and tear from prolonged use leading to reduced performance
Installation Notes and Tips
Installation requires removing the old wiper motor and mounting the Cardone 40-101 motor using the direct bolt mounting points. Ensure the blade-type terminals are properly connected to avoid electrical issues. If your vehicle has a moisture sensor, verify sensor functionality after installation. The package includes an instruction sheet to assist with the installation process. Note that the washer pump is not included, so retain or replace your existing pump as needed.
