What It Helps Fix

• Inoperative front windshield wipers

• Wipers stopping in the middle of the windshield
• Poor park position or misaligned resting position
• Motor wear related to bearing, solder, or internal electrical fatigue

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s front wiper motor configuration before installation, especially on models with moisture-sensitive wiper systems. If the vehicle uses hidden park blades and the wipers do not return to the correct resting position, the crank arm position on the motor shaft may need adjustment. If the washer pump is defective on certain systems, the wiper motor may not operate until that issue is corrected. Bench testing the wiper motor and washer pump before replacement can help confirm the root cause.

Compatible With 2019 Hyundai Sonata, front, and 2015-2018 Hyundai Sonata, front. Part number 43-45038 is a direct bolt replacement for the listed applications.
