About the Cardone Windshield Wiper Motor Product Line

The Cardone Windshield Wiper Motor line focuses on remanufactured motors engineered to meet or exceed original equipment specifications. This product line supports vehicles equipped with moisture-sensitive wiper systems, which use a rain sensor to monitor windshield moisture and adjust wiper speed accordingly. The 40-120 part number is part of this line, providing a reliable replacement option for classic GM models requiring precise wiper motor operation.

Product Details and Features

This wiper motor features blade-type terminals and mounts using three eyelet and grommet holes, ensuring secure installation. It is designed to work with vehicles that may have moisture sensors integrated into their wiper systems, allowing automatic adjustment of wiper speed based on rainfall accumulation. The motor is remanufactured, offering a cost-effective alternative to new units while maintaining functional integrity. Note that the washer pump is not included with this motor.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

  • Restores wiper motor function on Buick Camaro and Chevrolet Malibu models
  • Replaces faulty motors causing intermittent or stopped wiper operation
  • Supports moisture sensor-equipped systems in Pontiac Firebird and Oldsmobile Cutlass
  • Addresses wiper motors that fail to park correctly or stop mid-swipe
  • Compatible with vehicles where the original motor is worn or damaged

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires aligning the motor with the three mounting holes using eyelet and grommet mounts. Ensure blade terminals are properly connected to avoid electrical issues. This motor is designed to work with existing washer pumps, as it does not include one. For vehicles equipped with moisture sensors, verify sensor functionality after installation to maintain automatic wiper speed control. Refer to the included instruction sheet for detailed installation guidance.
