sammi wiper motor.
 

Hey guys, i have an 88' sammi and the wipers arent working i replaced the wiper motor with a reman. one, didnt work. i need some ideas why this aint working?

thanks,
adam

Are you getting power to the motor? blown fuse maybe? bad switch?

im getting powers to the motor.and good fuses. i dont know how to check the switch though.

smack it with a hammer while turning it off and on.

and if that doesnt work, get a bigger hammer :evilgrin:

lol.ok.it should work though its a remanufactured one rfrom oreily.

your right it should.
check it with a DVOM. each time you turn the switch up there should be less resistance than the position before. maybe your getting power enough to light a test light but not enough to run the motor.

just hook to motor up to the battery and see if it comes on or not

what do i use to hook the motor up to the battery?

just use extra wire you might have laying around run one to a positive and one to the negative

ok.ill try that tommorow.i tested to make sure i was getting power to the motor again today and i was so i already called oreily and there getting a new motor wednesday.so ill try that and go from there.thanks for all your help i ll keep you posted.

Make sure its mounted with a good ground from the windshield frame to the body, if not it aint goin work.
