Windscreen Wiper Motor

[dave.armstrong]

Has anybody tried to upgrade their windscreen wiper motor by fitting one from a newer car?

There seems to be quite a few universal ones that look similar in size and layout but don't want to take the plunge without checking.

Also has anyone upgraded their washer nozzles?

I fitted one from Alfaholics and it works well, but also chum drilled out his nozzles on a 105 spider and then had masses of water coming out using the same bag and pump.

Hope that helps..

To combat the dribble of the washer jets I fitted a pump for each side, that got the juices flowing

If your wiper motor and washer pump are weak......check the earths......easy to forget about them where they are hidden away

My electrics were crap but I spent a day going over every contact with special attention to the earths and fuses with emery paper, contact cleaner and cotton buds and it’s much better.
