Re: Wipers Stuck Straight Up

Hi Rich, maybe you could help me with a question about my wipers. When I replaced my wiper motor, there is an arm that connects to the top of it that spins around in a circle, moving the wipers. I snapped it off of the old motor and back onto the replacement motor I bought and put everything back together.

About a week later it come up a rain storm and the arm popped off. Had to take it all apart and put the arm back on and the same thing happened. This went on for about five different times before I was able to get a silver clamp screwed very tightly around the little piece of plastic that sits down on top of the motor. It hasn't come off in about a year, but is that normal. I don't even think you can replace that little bit of plastic without replacing the whole arm.

You can see what I'm talking about in the link that you provided above.

Thanks!
