Diesel2000 10 Posted November 13, 2014 My wipers are really slow, also there isn't much difference between the two speeds. Is this normal? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lilfuzzer 1 Posted November 13, 2014 Is the motor sticking a bit mate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diesel2000 10 Posted November 13, 2014 No it's a smooth movement just painfully slow. Slight drizzle the other day and had the wipers on fast and they were struggling to keep up. I'm offshore now but only just remembered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lilfuzzer 1 Posted November 13, 2014 Was it fine before the change of the stalk mate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diesel2000 10 Posted November 14, 2014 I don't know to be honest but I didn't change the wiper stalk, just the indicator. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted November 14, 2014 wire the motor temporarily directly to the battery, then you'll see if voltage drop is a problem (or get yourself a multimeter), pretty sure it will be the motor though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrahamU 5 Posted November 14, 2014 I have just had my mech apart and found the spindle were worn and started rusting where they go through the bearing, might be worth disconnecting the motor to see if the mech moves freely. I had the same slow wipers on an Audi caused by rust in the bearings. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted November 14, 2014 Replace the motor - its around £25 from ebay. Strip clean and lube the mechanism. Remove any rust from the mounting bracket, and you're good to go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
