need4speed Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I would like to test the sweep/operation of my wipers before i close all the dash in. James (Retroanaconda) suggested checking with a battery and a couple of leads to the wiper motor connector. This is a good idea. My only problem being i cannot get my RAVE diagrams to load. Pin1 appears to be black, so thats the negative, but could someone please tell me the other pin to take the positive to? Id rather do it without damaging something or creating big shower of sparks...

western Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 thought these might help with testing your wiper motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
need4speed Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 Thanks Ralph. Wires are totally different colour on mine. Guess that doesnt matter as long as the pins are the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I believe the pin positions are common, 90/110 motors are or used to be Lucas units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanoBrown Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Love this forum, need to use it more. I turned on my wipers but did not notice the windscreen ice, blades frozen to glass. Blue 10a fuse (x2). What is bad: motor, relay, lever/switch? This section of the post concerns me. MOT/ITV (Spain) coming up soon. Appreciate the help.

western Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 remove the arms & wipers, remove the motor & drive cable, clean all the old grease off the cable, lightly regrease with wheel bearing grease, check the drive spindlres can be turned easily by hand, if Ok, the refit drive cable & motor, reconnect electrics, check the motor runs easily then refit the arms & blades. hopefully that should give you a good set of wipers.
