Installation Notes

Confirm fitment by year, make, model, and front position before installation. This unit uses a direct bolt mount and blade terminals, and it does not include a washer pump. On vehicles with hidden park wipers, crank arm position can affect parking alignment; follow the vehicle-specific reset procedure if the blades do not return to the correct park location.

If the original system includes a moisture-sensitive wiper control module, verify the rain sensor and washer pump operation before replacing the motor. Some systems will not operate correctly if the washer pump is defective, so bench testing both components is recommended before installation. For 2010-2021 Toyota 4Runner, 2005-2016 Toyota Tacoma, 2010-2021 Lexus GX460, and 2013-2021 Lexus LX570 front applications, confirm washer pump compatibility exclusions noted in the fitment data.
