I&#8217;ve got two spare wiper motors in my stash to work with and a can of electrical cleaner; I need some bearing grease to repack the interior and a clear set of instructions as to how.<\/p>\n<p>1. My first clues about wiring are on the Binder Planet <a href=\"http:\/\/www.binderplanet.com\/forums\/showthread.php?t=92500&amp;highlight=bench+test+wiper+motor\">here<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p>It is a three wire motor with the common being the internal ground.<br \/>\nThe wires to and from the Scout switch are:<br \/>\n82 +12 hot<br \/>\n82A +12 after going through breaker, feeds the park switch on the wipers, ( Green wire on Wiper plug) and hot into the switch.<br \/>\n82 B feeds high speed on the wipers, ( Black wire on wiper plug.)<br \/>\n82 C feeds low speed on wipers, (Red wire on wiper plug. )<br \/>\nA 187 goes to washer motor, on this setup, I have here, it`s a green wire, the rest of the wires are black..<br \/>\nThe Scout switch in low speed position closes the circuit from 82 A to both 82 B and 82 C wires,<br \/>\nIn high speed it closes the circuit from 82 A to 82 B only.<\/p>\n<p>Also,<\/p>\n<p>Check for frozen\/binding linkage, especially the wiper pivots. Also running a separate ground from the motor case to the body helps, lots of times the ground path through the motor mounts isn&#8217;t very good and gets fixed accidentaly during motor replacement.<\/p>\n<p>2. Key information for inside bench testing is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.binderplanet.com\/forums\/showthread.php?t=107049&amp;highlight=bench+test+wiper+motor\">here<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p>I would clean the inside good with electric parts cleaner. Then bench test it with a battery charger.<br \/>\nTrickle charge 2 amp for low, and 10 amp fast charge for high.<\/p>\n<p>So, if and when I ever get some free time, this will be my next project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now that things are getting cold outside, I&#8217;ve got to focus on things I can do inside.
