Mini Wiper Motor Help

Recommended Posts

I am after advice on a couple of problems regarding my wiper motor on my S7

 

I have purchased the wiring plug to wire to column switch but there are 3 wires coming out of motor body and I presume they go to the 3 contacts on the park switch but can anyone identify which wire goes to which terminal (see pic)

also the wipers are really stiff when I pulled the cable which drives them through wiper boxes should this be really easy to pull and if so how do I remove from car to grease/lubricate

 

Thanks in advance

pic will help with the wiring connections. As for the lubrication, the motor and both wiper spindles must be removed from the car in one assembly. The motor is usually held by a jubilee type clamp bolted round its barrel. The spindles pop up through the scuttle and have two nuts each, one to secure the wiper arm and one to secure the spindle. Remove these and the motor, bowden cable and spindle boxes should be loose under the scuttle.

Following on from Nigel's information the wires are as below:-

 

Red wire bottom pin (slow speed)

Yellow wire middle pin (fast speed)

Blue wire top pin (earth)

 

The cable may be hard to pull due to the wheel boxes being tight, so check that they are free to move and lubricate them.

I'm now sorted, took lot out and wheel boxes are seized solid, I've ordered 2 from CBS so with cleaned up bundy cable, replacement motor and new boxes it should be another job off jobs to do list lol

 

Many thanks for your help
