Product Details and Features

This wiper motor is designed to work with vehicles that may have moisture sensor technology, which monitors rainfall accumulation on the windshield to adjust wiper speed automatically. It features a direct bolt mounting type with three mounting holes, allowing for a secure and precise fit. The blade terminal type ensures proper electrical connectivity. Note that this motor does not include a washer pump, so the existing washer pump must be retained or replaced separately.

Common Issues Addressed by This Wiper Motor

  • Wiper motor failure causing intermittent or no wiper movement
  • Wiper blades stopping mid-swipe on the windshield
  • Malfunction in moisture-sensitive wiper systems
  • Wiper motor noise or inconsistent speed
  • Replacement for worn or damaged original wiper motors on Buick and Cadillac models

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removing the old wiper motor and securing the new motor using the three direct bolt mounting holes. Ensure the blade terminal connections are properly seated to avoid electrical issues. If your vehicle is equipped with a moisture sensor, verify sensor operation after installation. The package includes an instruction sheet to assist with installation steps. Retain your existing washer pump as it is not included with this motor.
