New Front Wiper Motor?
« on: 06 January 2016, 18:20 »
My front wipers started struggling against the windscreen a few days ago and have now completly died. I thought the spindles might of seized so I've managed to get the mechanism out and the spindles on the two arms turn as expected. However the spindle coming out the motor assembly where it mounts onto the arms doesn't rotate at all. I can't even turn it by hand. I've plugged the motor back in and you can hear a low buzz but nothing happens.

What do I do from this point, dismantle the motor assembly or buy a new motor?
