Wiper motor install

[epik1]

having a little trouble.

Just a little paranoid, installing my wiper motor.

the silver ball from the motor is supposed to click securely into the socket on the wiper arm "arm" right?

Thanks

Yes...

End thread. lol.

[Om1kron]

yeah, sadly it's not easy to pop it in there, rub a little grease on the ball then shove that fucker in there.

Is that what she said Wayne?

Yeah its really tricky..someone suggested I take the bracket with the ball off the motor but I don't see that working out that well lol.

Any tips?
I get the ball in the socket but falls out cause I can't seem to pop in the ball far enough to "click".

take off the wipers and the plasic vent cover under the wipers and you will see a access hole you can possibly squeeze ur arm into to reach the ball joint area. (No homo)

Driverside or passenger side ? cause I lifted up the plastic cowl before and I didn't see any hole. Dude who sold me the motor broke a few weather stripping clips trying to take them off too =\ lol

either way, will check tommorow in daylight.
Thanks

should be in the middle-ish area IIRC

[epik1]

got it. you gotta take off the wiper arms and the cowl and then pull the internal arm loose enough so that you can sort of rest it on the passenger side "lip" of the hole where the wiper motor goes so you can pop it back in..-_- easier as a two person job

Thanks!! It's pretty easy like that. It took me like 2-5 mins.
