Product Details

The CARDONE Windshield Wiper Motor line is built around remanufactured OE cores that are re-engineered for original fit and function. Part number 40-3017L is a front wiper motor for 2001-2004 Dodge Stratus, 2001-2003 Chrysler Cirrus, and 2001-2003 Chrysler Sebring applications with linkage and without a washer pump on the motor. This part cross-references Chrysler 4805249AA and 4805249AB for the same application.

As part of CARDONE’s remanufactured wiper motor program, this unit is rebuilt with attention to the armature, field, bearing, parking switch, and related electrical functions. That makes it a practical replacement when the original motor has lost speed, stopped parking correctly, or no longer drives the linkage consistently.

What It Helps Fix

• Front wipers that do not move or move intermittently
• Wipers that stop in the middle of the windshield
• Poor parking or misaligned park position
• Slow or weak wiper sweep
• Electrical wear inside the original motor assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle uses a front wiper motor with linkage and no washer pump on the motor before installation. If the wipers park incorrectly and the vehicle does not use hidden wiper blades, the crank arm position on the motor shaft may need adjustment to restore proper park location. If the vehicle has moisture-sensitive wipers, verify the rain sensor and related control module operation before replacing the motor. Also bench test the wiper motor and washer pump together when diagnosing a no-operation condition, since a faulty washer pump can prevent some systems from running.

Quality Assurance

Each CARDONE remanufactured wiper motor is tested against original equipment standards and then function-tested on the vehicle application. The remanufacturing process is designed to recover usable materials and reduce waste while maintaining OE-level fit and operation.
