Rear wiper motor Legacy wanted

Jan 17, 2005 2 Replies

Anybody got a cheap rear wiper motor for a 99 Legacy please?


Had what I thouight was a bad wiper motor on a 98 Legacy GT wagon. Mootor was fine but shaft that wiper attached to had seized into the alloy housing that the motor and wiper sfat attach to. Removed assembley taped out shaft with a wood block to not damage thread. Once apart drilled out housing to increase clearance and reassembled. All is working fine now two years later.

May want to check for corrosion bonding the steel shaft to the aluminum housing before you buy a motor
