Detailed Description

This Cardone wiper motor is part of the Windshield Wiper Motor line and is remanufactured to restore proper rear wiper operation. The unit is re-engineered, built, and tested to match O.E. performance, with final functional testing completed on the vehicle application. Part number 43-20016 is listed for 2014 Toyota Matrix rear, 2009-2013 Toyota Matrix rear, and 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe rear. This part cross-references Toyota 8513002040 for the same application.

For Toyota Matrix and Pontiac Vibe rear wiper service, this motor addresses the needs of a worn or nonresponsive rear wiper drive while maintaining the original mounting style and electrical connection type. The remanufacturing process also reflows weak solder points and reduces material use compared with producing a new part.

What It Is Used For

• Restoring rear windshield wiper movement
• Replacing a motor with weak or failed internal components
• Correcting intermittent or inconsistent wiper operation
• Addressing parking or sweep issues caused by motor wear
• Replacing a unit that no longer meets O.E. performance

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the mounting style, terminal type, and fitment notes before installation. If the wipers park incorrectly after replacement, check crank arm position and follow the vehicle-specific reset procedure. Bench test the wiper motor and washer pump before replacing either component, especially on applications where washer pump faults can affect motor operation.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactured wiper motors are tested against O.E. standards and validated through functional testing. The remanufacturing process is designed to reduce energy and raw material use compared with manufacturing a new part.
