Hi,I need a pic or a diagram of the inside of the round 110 degree wiper motor.
I used 2 motors to make a good one,but think there are washers/shims/bush is missing on the arm that connects to the plastic gear,as there seems to much slop. The motor is slowing in a particular spot,and I think its because of this?
The rack has been stripped and cleaned,degreased so know that's not a issue.

Cheers if you can help as my Mot is immenient.

I can't remember what was inside the motor.

 

A new plastic gear in the gearbox solved all my issues. don't have my car to hand right now, even if I did- removing the cover exposes the top side only.

from memory I think there was one cup shaped washer below the gear, then a circlip and washer on the underside.

as a quick mot fix-can you reduce the tension on the arms at all? or use the chrome arms- there bog all tension on them anyway.

Chopper. Cannot find enough detail to see what parts make up the arm fittings to the gear in the motor on google bud.
I try having a look at the other spare I have and see if that motor spins any easier first.
I think now the main issue is when I clamp the motor to the car body,it's putting a bit of force on the guide tubes slowing it even more.
Cheers

I have the chrome arms already fitted. Going to check movement of the rack cable.

[brownspeed]

rack cable should glide freely. try & degrease it all & get all the old degraded grease out of the cable & tube. Use a liberal handful of grease; & it will be handful- I don't think there's any other way to lubricate it all without covering yourself in it!

I presume you mean the Lucas 14W type of wiper motor? The degree of sweep is determined by the gear wheel not the type of motor. Hopefully this exploded diagram helps.

[olly33]

Brownspeed,I have done all that,wheels seem free too.

62s,That's what I am after,is there a website for the individual parts listed ? Cheers bud.

Any idea what part 17 actually does apart from pushing onto the motor spindle when tightened too.

[KernowCooper]

17 is the end float on the comm/drive, I used to nip then up until you feels light resistance and then back off 45degs, to tight will bind up the comm shaft

 

6ft/lbs is the maximum pull with a spring balance on the drive cable, thats the setting in the Lucas Manual

Thanks for the info Kernow.
