2001 Accent Wipers

The wipers seem to be binding up, and not able to smoothly travel back and forth. The motor is attempting to turn, but can't, and is getting hot. If I pull the linkage off at the motor, the motor rotates. Last week I took everything apart, and sprayed with wd-40 and lithium grease, and everything seemed ok. Now it is bound up again. Any Answers? Thanks

Are they Hyundai blades? Have tried others and they are terrible. Had problems sticking and clearing window. Worth buying at least the rubber from Hyundai. Suggest buying the armature with the rubber squeegee part = $30 for pair. I sometimes get chatter where they skip across windshield if it is not raining much. Some rain-x usually fixes that. If it's the motor I'd buy it from a junkyard. You can find a place on the net to buy one from second hand. Don't know how much they cost but I wouldn't spend big bucks on one. :smokin:

I would say it's the wiper linkages that need to be replaced. Part # 98200-25000 List price is $72.39, I'll sell to you for $55 plus shipping. I do have it in stock as well, so no waiting.
