Subject:The "world's slowest rear wiper" problem
From:Marshall Ruskin
Date:Tue, 2 Feb 1999 15:29:54 -0600

Hi Readers:

My rear wiper is unbelievably slow - it's almost comical!

Any ideas for a diagnosis and/or a solution?

I see the possible problems being:

1. low voltage getting to motor;
2. excessive friction somewhere in assembly;
3. bum motor
4. Dirty ground?

What else could it be, and how do I test for the above?
I haven't seen this discussed on the list, or in the Bentley. Is it a common
thing?

Cheers!
