Verify whether the vehicle uses a pulse board and confirm the rear wiper motor is specified without a washer pump before installation. If the wipers do not park correctly, the crank arm position may need to be adjusted on the motor shaft using the vehicle service procedure. If the washer pump is defective, some systems will not allow the motor to operate, so bench test both components before replacement.

Each Cardone remanufactured wiper motor is tested against OE standards for fit and function before release. The remanufacturing process is designed to restore reliable operation while reducing material and energy use compared with manufacturing a new part.
