Hi all. Can the rear wiper motor get hot enough to melt plastic? Or, is this due to wear and tear? (power draw over time, heat ) Image of rear window wiper connector: http://tinyurl.com/jd2q4w3 It appears to be partially burned. Searched but didn't find anything in archives of this. Wiper works. This Vanagon seems to have had body work done on it. Possibly a collision repair but I think that's limited to the driver side mid ship. Regardless, there's no signs of fire damage anywhere.
