Product Details

Cardone’s Windshield Wiper Motor line focuses on replacement motors engineered from long experience remanufacturing and redesigning wiper systems. The 85-454 uses a stronger gear material than original equipment to help prevent common failure points, while the motor’s torque and lubrication are selected to support dependable rear wiper movement. This part cross-references Jeep 55156278AA for the same application.

Compatible With 2003-2006 Jeep TJ, rear, and 2003-2006 Jeep Wrangler, rear. Use this Cardone 85-454 rear wiper motor when the original unit no longer parks correctly, moves slowly, or stops working under load.

Common Problems This Part Can Help Solve

• Rear wiper motor inoperative
• Slow or weak rear wiper movement
• Wipers stopping mid-sweep

• Gear noise, stripping, or internal motor wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle is equipped with the correct rear wiper motor setup before replacement. If the wipers do not park correctly after installation, inspect crank arm position and reset the park alignment according to the vehicle service procedure. If the washer pump is part of the original circuit, bench test the motor and washer pump before replacing either, since some systems will not operate if the washer pump has failed.

Each Cardone 85-454 rear wiper motor is load tested to verify operation and assembled with controlled lubrication for quiet performance. The design uses upgraded gear material to improve durability versus the original design and support long-term service in Jeep TJ and Jeep Wrangler rear wiper applications.
