Default 1991 240 GL - Need a front wiper motor & dash panel bulbs

Part number of my current failed front wiper motor - 1373356
Not sure if motors from other models would work

Also need 2 x of the larger dash panel bulbs and their associated holders

Thanks in advance

The wiper motors are easy to remove and take apart- they often fail as one of the magnets inside the case has become detached, the magnets can be glued back on with epoxy. Worth trying before replacement.

Otherwise, lakes the Volvo breaker will probably be able to supply one.

Cheers

Still looking for a wiper motor for a 91 240 gl. Mines definitely knackered and lakes don’t have any in. Please get in touch if you have one available 👍

Default Try this

Clean up earth connection as the motor earths directly to the body through one of the bolts and run a new earth cable from this to another point on the bulkhead (about 300mm of cable should do it).

Thanks Geoffo. But it does look like the actual motor brushes are knackered.

You can use the motor from a LHD one https://www.classicswede.co.uk/Wiper..._19839531.aspx
