Product Details and Features

This wiper motor is designed to operate with vehicles equipped with or without moisture sensors. Moisture sensitive wipers use a rain sensor to monitor rainfall accumulation on the windshield, automatically adjusting wiper speed. While this motor supports vehicles with these features, it is important to verify sensor compatibility before installation. The motor uses blade-type terminals for electrical connections and mounts directly to the vehicle with bolts, simplifying replacement. Note that the washer pump is not included with this motor and must be sourced separately if needed.

Common Issues Addressed by This Wiper Motor

• Wiper motor failure causing intermittent or no wiper movement
• Wipers stopping mid-swipe or not completing full cycles
• Incompatibility with moisture sensor systems causing erratic wiper behavior
• Wear and tear from prolonged use leading to reduced wiper performance
• Electrical connection issues due to damaged terminals or mounts

• Ensure vehicle compatibility with Ford Contour or Mercury Mystique before installation
• Disconnect the battery prior to removing the old wiper motor to prevent electrical shorts
• Use the direct bolt mounting points for secure and proper alignment
• Verify blade terminal connections are clean and secure for reliable operation
• Consult the included instruction manual for detailed installation guidance
