Thank you, this was very helpful! Just changed mine - the motor and the linkage. My replacement part had linkage that was bent, and initially the motor couldn’t make the full turn. So if you’re changing yours, be aware that the linkage has to recess into a hole in the frame rail in the driver’s side corner, and if the linkage gets bent during shipping, you’ll need to bent it back so that it matches the original you take out. I hope this saves someone a few minutes!
Just what I needed for info to replace the linkage mechanism on my daughter's car. I switched out the existing motor onto the new linkage. Later saw a video suggesting to buy and switch out the arms only. Oh well, job is done and working great! So glad with all this rain in Vermont summer 2023.
This video was great, after one view I confirmed I could do the work, got the part, followed the steps as outlined and its done. Saved me time and money. Thank you for making this video!
I have a 2006 Honda Accord, the wipers are inconsistent and hit the chrome trim on the windshield. I bought that assembly online for $160, Auto Parts store wanted $300 ? Great Video, Thanks ! 👍
My wipers slam on the way down. Do you know if that would be the linkage or the motor? My guess is the linkage has gotten loose over time but unsure how to specifically diagnose that.
i had my wind shield replaced. since then, the driver's side wiper exceeds the range of the glass and extends onto the body (on the up swing). can this be corrected?
@@MechanicalMalarkey thank you. I was thinking the same thing.. get this .. I have a (Haynes, I think ) car manual which is not very good. Does not give details like the size socket for the removal of a nut... kinda sucks for me.

Great video. Used this for the Accord cowl removal to replace washer nozzels. Thanks!
About to have to replace mine. Thumpy wipers have been driving me nutty. Thanks for the vid!

I think that's often caused by worn out linkage bushings, but these are often only sold with motor and linkage together now.

You can remove the nut, loosen the arm, and adjust it to where it won't hit on the upswing.

completed. Thanks for the tip, all is well.
Great video. Where did you buy the assembly?
Probably RockAuto
@@MechanicalMalarkey thanks for the quick reply
What kind of tool did you use to pull off those clips?
My go to tool is the Snap On ASG186BR, but you could do it with other tools.
Thank you for the video. Well done and helpful.
