2004 Forester - Passenger side wiper doesn't wipe.

Jan 16, 2006 3 Replies

Got in the other day, turned on the wipers and only the drivers side worked. I can move the pass. wiper through the arc with little restistance. How are the wipers connected to eachother?, gears, belt, link arms?



It looks like a pain in the ass to get to the mechanism.


They are connected by a linking arm from what I see in the service manual. There is a screw that tightens to adjust the relationship between wipers. To get to it, it appears the wipers come off, then the cowling. The whole mechanism is then exposed.
