Wipers do not work well and do not seem to have the proper motion and pressure against the windshield.
I have replaced the wiper blades several times but that does not seem to be the problem.

Is it difficult to replace the motor and the mechanical wiper assembly. I am not sure if it is the motor or the assembly.
The wiper motion is "sloppy" and noisy.

Thanks

Hi joet8591,

The wiper links are more likely to be faulty rather than the motor.

FRONT WIPER MOTOR
Removal & Installation

1. Open hood. Remove cap nuts from wiper arms. Carefully remove wiper arms. Remove hood seal and air scoop by prying off trim clips and removing screws. Go to next step.

2. Disconnect wiper motor 5-pin connector. Remove 3 bolts, nut and wiper linkage assembly. Scribe a line across link and wiper linkage for installation reference. Separate wiper linkage from wiper motor. Remove wiper motor assembly.

3. To install, reverse removal procedure. Lubricate all moving parts. Before installing wiper arms, turn wiper switch on, then off, to return wiper shafts to park position.
