    Dude... you almost literally saved me from an aneurism! I have replaced part after part trying to get my 06 Buick Rainier's wipers from running non-stop until the wiper blades tore themselves apart. I just ran the resistance test you showed here and ordered a new module. As soon as the part arrives I can return to sanity thanks to you! LOL

In defense of the shop that installed the remanufactured unit, they may have checked the old unit and the new one fixed the problem, although only temporarily. Good job Ivan.

    The original garage it did the work charged me $300 and had it three different times and still did not fix.
    That's why I went to Ivan because I know he can fix it.
    What sucks is I'm out cost of $600 for a wiper module repair that should have only been $300 the other garage won't refund my money and keeps give me the runaround.

(Charger only charges one battery at a time, It cycles through the 3 batteries one at a time until all 3 are charged.) I've had three of the six relays go bad so far. I should have been proactive and just replaced all six, oh well next time one fails I will replace the rest. Lesson learned!

  • @russellstephan6844
    @russellstephan6844 4 года назад

    I bought a used Chevy C1500 years back. The previous owner had used household electrical wiring to put tension on the wiper motor assembly. Under tension, the thing worked. Zero wipers, however, if no tension.
    There's your clue, lady!
    After removing the household wiring tension hack, I took the cover off the electronics and sure enough, the receiving connector plug soldered on the circuit board had broken all its pathways. Heat up the old soldering iron, added a bit o' solder repairing the broken electrical tracings, and the issue was fixed. It's now been working for years.
    Come to find out from a friend working as a service writer for a GM dealership, this is a know issue. However, the dealership repair is to replace the whole wiper motor assembly. The solder fix required no parts and no exorbitant dealership labor rates.
    Gotta love those no-cost fixes!

    Nice work, Ivan! Looks like Dorman, or its suppliers struck again on this one! ZERO quality control on individual board components! Good thing aircraft don't use this garbage!! Those relays looked like the 1,000-for-$1.00 eBay specials there! Worked about as good, too. 😂
    I like the "parts sniper rifle" - it's all about precision! I used that method on my 940 when the brake lights failed. Tested for power at the fuse box and fuse, then the switch at the pedal (which were all good), and going off a wiring diagram, along with common failure knowledge, I soldered together 4 points inside the bulb failure relay - voila! Brake lights again! 👍👍 I gave you a shout out on my vid on that one. 🍻😊

    Loverly diagnostic and repair ivan :-D, i found the wipers wagging in the wind so funny lol.
    After you showed the B.B.ind diagram i guessed the fast relay was welded shut.
    But it's not a full weld, spattered contacts sticking perhaps.
    The brunt of the stationary motor overload would have damaged one of the relays, the pcb is isolated via the relay coil.
    Why didn't a fuse pop on the first overload, wrong fuse maybe?
    "Dorkman." That was a fright LOL.

    @sinegra30 5 лет назад +5

    Great fix Ivan, thank you for posting! In my case I would check for wiper motor current consumption because that relay can fail due to high current circulation, that normally happens when the wiper motor is getting closer to a shorted state even though is still working... considering the stock frozen history of the wipers during the storm as per the customer commented, I guess it was stock frozen while on a high speed (with no protection from the wiper position sensor because this feature only works on lower wiper speeds) provoking a high current to go through the relay contacts making it internally welded in one position. The question is why the fuse did not blew up? Maybe they have a higher amps capacity fuse instead of the right one?
