Common Problems This Part Can Address

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm rear fitment before ordering: this motor is for rear applications only on the listed Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator model years. The washer pump is not included, so inspect the washer system separately if the original concern involved both wipe and wash functions. If the wiper does not park correctly after installation, check crank arm position on the motor shaft and follow the vehicle-specific hidden park reset procedure. For moisture-sensitive systems, verify the rain sensor and control module operation before replacing the motor.

If the motor does not operate after installation, bench test the wiper motor and washer pump together. Some vehicles will not run the motor if the washer pump has failed, which can be mistaken for a defective replacement motor.

Quality Assurance

Cardone designs this Windshield Wiper Motor line using experience gained from remanufacturing and reverse engineering original units, then improves the internal gear material for added durability. Each motor is load tested before release to help confirm dependable operation under real-world conditions.
