1800S Wiper motor
Hi
The wiper motor on my 69 1800S is making a clonk sound just before the wiper's return sweep. My first question is, apart from having to lie under the dash, is removal and replacement a straightforward task or can I expect the usual 1800 awkward access accompanied by frustration and swearing - (bearing in mind I think I'm too old for this and have fat fingers). Second question, the spare motor I have is I think a later one (cable terminals enclosed). Are all the motors used for the 1800 interchangeable? Thanks Simon |

Simon;
"Clonk" suggests a big slop somewhere in either linkage or Motor/Gearbox assy...I'd have a look with a good lightsource, before talking about removal of the assy (which i'm sure is no fun)...you might get lucky and slop is external to Mot Assy (part of Cable on Cam mechanism), and perhaps repairable without removal...it won't be simple (rather like building a ship in a bottle), but it beats having to remove the entire assembly (maybe)...I can't remove the need for under Dash contortions...sorry. Good Hunting! |
