rear windshield wiper

BurtonRyder · 12-14-2008, 10:14 AM

ok. i just took a trip to vermont the other day. on the way back i noticed that the rear wiper wasnt working properly. when i turn it on it will make its first path fine but on the second pass it goes all the way to one side and on the way back it stops a little more than half way back. what could be causing this?

Does it go to the park position when you shut it off? If not I would suspect the motor being bad. I replaced mine this year, I think about $60 from AutoZone.

Could still be the motor as it has a printed circuit board controlling the wiper. Other then that I don't know.

Dont mean to take over the thread but why start a new about back windsheild wiper. Is there a spring in the back because mine skips over the middle half of the window?
