Detailed Description

Cardone part number 40-3009 is a remanufactured windshield wiper motor engineered for OE-style performance on front wiper systems. It is a direct-fit replacement for 1998 Dodge B1500, B2500, and B3500, as well as 1999-2003 Dodge Ram 1500 Van, Ram 2500 Van, and Ram 3500 Van front applications. This part cross-references Dodge 55155046AD and 55155046AE for the same application.

Every unit is built with attention to the components that affect wiper speed, park position, and long-term reliability. Main internal parts are tested or gauged to OE standards, then the finished motor is function-tested on the vehicle. The remanufacturing process also reduces raw material and energy use compared with producing a new part.

What It Helps Fix

• Front wipers that stop working or move intermittently
• Wiper blades that park in the wrong position
• Slow or weak windshield wiper movement
• Inconsistent wiper motor output during rain
• Electrical or mechanical wear inside the original motor
