Product Details

Cardone’s Windshield Wiper Motor line focuses on remanufactured OE replacement parts that are re-engineered, built, and tested to restore factory-style operation. Part number 43-1428 is a front wiper motor with direct bolt and grommet mounting, a blade terminal type, and three mounting holes. It does not include a washer pump, so it is intended for Honda Civic vehicles that use the motor-only configuration. This part cross-references Honda 76505SR1A05 and 76574S01A07 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Front wipers stop working or respond intermittently
• Wipers park in the wrong position after shutdown
• Slow, weak, or inconsistent wiper sweep
• Motor noise with limited or no blade movement
• Failure caused by worn internal bearings, solder joints, or magnets

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle uses a motor-only setup before ordering, since this unit is not for applications with a washer pump attached to the motor. If the wipers stop in the middle of the windshield, check crank arm position and hidden-park reset procedure before assuming the motor is defective. On moisture-sensitive systems, verify the rain sensor and control module operation as well. Bench test the wiper motor and washer pump before replacement when diagnosing a no-operation condition.

Each Cardone remanufactured wiper motor is built to OE performance targets and tested through the remanufacturing process for function and reliability. The brand’s wiper motor program has been part of its product line since 1970, with a focus on remanufactured electrical components for long-term service.
