weak or slightly loose ground at the wiper motor case can cause poor engagement, especially when cold. Also, if the wiper linkage isn’t clocked exactly right during install, the motor may not find its park position cleanly. A little vibration and heat from driving can temporarily fix a bad ground or slightly shift stiff linkage.
You see it was a bit flighty on install It was late went home. And wella
That said yes it was off to a flying start. They worked. For a few days on test as it was not raining for a couple of days.
Unfortunately, during a rain event today
That 🧊cold Misty rain , the system failed. Despite having a brand new motor, switch, and washer pump, the entire wiper system stopped functioning. This was not an intermittent glitch — the system ceased operation altogether.
:Given the fresh components, this points toward a potential failure in power delivery, ground integrity, or control logic — not in the hardware itself. I’ll begin tracing voltage at the motor and verifying switch output and ground continuity before assuming any part failure. I’ll also inspect the pulse/delay module (if applicable), as it remains a known point of vulnerability in these systems.:
Above is some help I got on the net. But I’m not this smart.
That said: who in Bean Town Boston can dig out this ongoing mess for me ………….in this weather. Whew! And it’s my birthday 🎉.
