Yes, respectfully, you did a removal, not the install. I just went through
your video quickly and found at the end, you didn’t install the new one,
and there are some things to know about installing things, like clues to
how to align the arms up properly to get the full swing of the wipers when
turned on. I really do appreciate you making a video, but perhaps you
might keep the titles accurate so others know to spend time watching or
not. Having said this, again, I appreciate and respect that you have done
the video… thank you for sharing regardless of the not-so-accurate title.

That motor sure came loose from the assembly easily. When I replaced the
one on my mom’s Saturn SL2, I about never got those bolts broken loose. It
makes matters worse when you have to try and find somewhere to hold down
the wiper assembly so that you can actually put some effort onto the bolts
themselves. I didn’t have a vice handy.
Enjoyed this video. Looks similiar to my 91 Golf except for the location of
the fuse panel. I just have to climb under my dash to access the panel with
half my body outside the car lol. I agree testing for voltage would be
tough with the wiper motor in the car, but of course check the fuses,relays
and wiper stalk on the steering wheel first before removing the motor.
Thanks for posting this!
Shoe horn? I was thinking of a plasma cutter for the old unit! LOL! Of
course, you would need a Saturn, VW, GM, Ford, etc., shoe horn for each
application. Great video, what a Bit__!
thanks Rich Im a newbie to the DIY world of mechanics, and I had to revisit
both videos a couple times, but a my new motor has been successfully
transplanted in for the old one. thanks a million
Great video Rich! Another trick you can do to get those wiper arms off if
you don’t have the puller is to loosen the nut off like you did, then take
a pair of vise grips, one side underneath the wiper arm and the other end
on the nut that’s loosened off, give it a squeeze and they usually pop off
no problem.

That’s a tight fit! I’ll bet the service manual says you must remove the
windshield first to gain access to the wiper motor… LOL
It’s a real bitch to have to take out the motor just to check for voltage.
I left it there when i get the green car back i am going to check it first
then if it needs a motor i will put a rebuilt in.
man that looked like a real pain in the ass…i hope my motor never blows
on my s4
Good job Rich. How much did the junk yard charge you for that motor?
A cloudy day is the best time to take footage outside.
Hey! Great video…Do you have another one explaining how you put it back
in?just looking for an idea of how hard was it to put it back in place.
Thanks
Sometimes difficult can be an understatement.
Yes, the high contrast with a bright day makes video much more difficult.
That’s a very insightful comment, Rich.

I need a couple of beers before i do that.
Keep up the great work on the videos Rich! Some of the best.. clearly
explained and clearly shot footage.

You’re the man Rich!
Like the 6 million dollar man i resurrected it and made it better.
Nice having access to a pick a part junk yard.. You know the owner?
I see you have a new panel remover. I saw ol’ faithful give out in one of
your recent videos.
Just about.
1st
you will need the whole six pack!!

I want to see you try to reassemble it back 🙂 That is going to be even
more fun job
That kind of door panel clip remover is a real multi-purpose tool. I also
use it a lot. Nice video!
I just wanted to add that the new panel remover looks great…german cars
are so needlessly difficult…
This looks incredibly frustrating
Thanks for taking the time Rich.
You bet.

Thank you that will work to get those pesky wiper arms off.
