What It Helps Fix

• Inoperative front windshield wipers
• Wipers that stop mid-sweep on the windshield
• Poor park position or misaligned resting position
• Intermittent wiper motor operation
• Wiper performance issues related to worn internal motor components

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle uses a front wiper motor application before ordering. 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 vehicle does not use hidden wiper blades, parking misalignment is often related to crank arm position. Adjust the crank arm angle on the motor shaft to restore proper park location, and refer to a vehicle-specific service manual for the hidden-park reset procedure when applicable.

For moisture-sensitive systems, a rain sensor mounted inside the windshield near the rearview mirror sends input to the control module, which then adjusts motor speed. Verify the vehicle’s system configuration before installation.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactured wiper motors are built from OE cores and tested to match original equipment performance. The remanufacturing process is designed to restore function while reducing material and energy use, supporting a more efficient repair choice for Nissan and Infiniti front wiper systems.
