__aw Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I've got some super slow motion windshield wipers. High speed feels like barely normal speed should. Intermittent is funny to watch.. it gives a little nudge a few times before it the wiper actually makes a pass. I know it's a minor detail... but I am wondering if it is worth pulling out the wiper motor assembly and tearing it down (is this even possible)? In past experience with small parts like this, often a thorough cleaning and re-greasing works wonders. Just thought I'd ask if anyone had any tips... "give it a shot" or "don't waste your time" or "yeah that is exactly what you need to do", etc. Thanks!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 It's probably not the motor - it's likely the linkage ball joints, etc under the cowling. The grease dries up and they get stiff. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
