What It Helps Fix

• Wipers that stop mid-sweep on the windshield
• Inoperative front windshield wiper operation
• Weak, inconsistent, or slow wiper movement
• Parking misalignment when the crank arm position is out of adjustment
• Electrical wear inside the motor from failed solder points, bearings, or magnets

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment before installation, especially on Chrysler Cirrus, Dodge Stratus, Plymouth Breeze, and Chrysler Sebring front wiper systems. This unit does not include a washer pump, and some vehicles will not operate the motor correctly if the washer pump is defective. Bench test the wiper motor and washer pump before replacing either component. If the motor does not have hidden wiper blades, parking misalignment is often corrected by adjusting the crank arm angle on the motor shaft to restore proper park position.

Package contents include the wiper motor and instruction sheet. Use a vehicle-specific service manual or online repair information for the hidden park reset procedure when required.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured wiper motor is re-engineered, built, and tested to match OE performance. The remanufacturing process renews key wear items, recharges magnets, and verifies function before release, supporting reliable operation in daily driving conditions.
