Common Repair Symptoms

• Rear wiper stops mid-sweep or parks in the wrong position
• Rear wiper motor runs slowly or inconsistently
• Rear wiper does not respond after electrical diagnosis
• Parking alignment is off after replacement or service
• Moisture-sensitive wiper system behavior is inconsistent after related component failure

Installation Notes

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and rear position before installation. If the wipers do not park correctly and the vehicle does not use hidden wiper blades, check crank arm position on the motor shaft and reset as needed using the vehicle service procedure. If the system includes a moisture sensor, confirm the rain sensor and control module are operating correctly. Bench test the wiper motor and washer pump before replacing either component, since some systems will not operate if the washer pump has failed.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured wiper motor is restored to O.E. performance standards through component testing, reconditioning, and final vehicle-level function checks. The remanufacturing process supports dependable operation while reducing material and energy use compared with manufacturing a new part.
