| Post subject: | windscreen wiper motor trouble |
Doing some work on the zook this week and nearly had it all back together and the wiper motor didnt work. I checked it before I locked the windscreen back but now its failed. I pulled it out and checked on the bench still dead except for if I put power to the yellow terminal and a blue one. Any clues, can I fix it or is it bin time? |

Not too sure about Zuk specifics, but normally only 2 of the wires are +ve and -ve - one of the wires is the contact that signals when the wiper is at it's rest position for the wipers to stop in the correct place when switched off. If the motor works on the bench, check the linkages to the wipers haven't all rusted/frozen up. |

hah- my bad.... i just had a washer motor die a little while ago - when it wasnt pulling water through it got super hot (it was jammed with rubber from the seal around it that had perished and got sucked in). |

Sorry alien just thought you were trying to be smart, So the story goes, I had just replace the windscreen surround ( thanks Stekky), As it must from a slightly diff model the wiper arms are diff lengths and jammed the motor and blew the fuse. I also put toooo long bolts in the top 2 wiper motor mounts which also jammed the actuator arm. So now with the correct bolt length , the correct arms for said windscreen and a new fuse all is good. |
