Detailed Description

Built from Cardone’s reverse-engineering experience in wiper motor remanufacturing, this new replacement motor is designed as an improved version of the original design. The motor gears use a tougher, less brittle material than OE to help resist wear over time, while the internal lubrication and load testing support dependable front wiper operation. Part number 85-4000 is a practical choice for drivers servicing a Honda Civic or Honda CR-V front wiper system.

This part cross-references Honda 76505S00A01 and 76505S00C01 for the same application.
