A wiper motor is an electric DC motor that powers the windshield wiper system in a vehicle. It converts electrical energy into mechanical motion to move the wiper arms back and forth across the windshield, clearing rain, snow, dirt, and debris.

Key points:

• Operation: Typically uses a worm gear mechanism to reduce speed and increase torque, allowing smooth, controlled wiper movement.

• Speeds: Most wiper motors offer multiple speeds (low, high, and intermittent) and may include a parking function that returns blades to the bottom of the windshield when turned off.

• Location: Mounted below the windshield, usually near the firewall or cowl panel.

• Types: Includes standard motors (with linkage arms) and more advanced direct-drive motors (each blade has its own motor).

• Related feature: Rear window wiper motors are smaller and simpler in design.

Common symptoms of a failing wiper motor:

• Wipers moving slower than usual or stopping mid-cycle

• Only one speed working (e.g., high works, low doesn't)

• No wiper movement even though you hear the motor running (often a broken linkage)

• Wipers not parking in the correct position

• No movement at all (motor may be burned out or have electrical issues)
