Wiper Motor Replacement

The WAI WPM5162 is a front wiper motor built as a 100% new replacement for direct-fit service. It is engineered to meet or exceed OE manufacturing and performance specifications, with a wiring harness included for a cleaner installation path.

  • 100% new wiper motor construction.
  • Tested to OE specifications for form, fit, and function.
  • Male connector and male terminals for proper electrical connection.
  • 9.63 wiring harness length with 4-wire, 4-terminal design.
  • Three mounting holes for secure installation.
  • Washer pump not included.

Detailed Product Overview

This WAI wiper motor is intended for direct replacement service where dependable windshield wiper operation is needed. The WPM5162 uses a 4-wire electrical layout, a male connector, and a male terminal configuration, along with an included wiring harness to support installation. It cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., MB249196) for the same application. Fits 1983-1991 Mitsubishi Montero, front. Fits 1987-1989 Dodge Raider, front.

For Mitsubishi Montero and Dodge Raider applications, this motor is a practical OE-style replacement when the original unit no longer delivers consistent sweep or electrical response. The WPM5162 part number is useful when matching the correct front wiper motor configuration, and WPM5162 should be verified against the vehicle’s existing connector and mounting layout before installation.

Used For These Issues

  • Inoperative windshield wiper movement.
  • Intermittent or slow wiper operation.
  • Electrical connection problems at the motor.
  • Worn motor output that affects sweep consistency.

Installation Notes

Confirm the existing connector style, terminal layout, and mounting pattern before replacement. This unit is specified as a front wiper motor only, so match the application to the vehicle’s original configuration. The included wiring harness can simplify connection setup, but the washer pump is not included.

Quality Assurance

WAI states that this wiper motor is manufactured to meet or exceed OE specifications and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. The WPM5162 is built from new components and tested to OE standards for form, fit, and function.
