Product Details

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Front wipers that stop mid-windshield

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2004-2014 Volvo XC90, front. This application excludes washer pump compatibility. If the vehicle uses a moisture-sensitive wiper system, verify the rain sensor and control module operation before replacing the motor. If the wipers park in the wrong position, the crank arm angle on the motor shaft may need to be adjusted using the vehicle-specific hidden park reset procedure. Bench test the wiper motor and washer pump before installation when diagnosing a no-operation concern.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured wiper motor is tested to OE standards and then checked again for final function on the vehicle. The remanufacturing process restores key wear items, recharges magnets, and reflows weak solder joints to support reliable operation over time.
