Topic: how do I pull off my wiper motor?

[snowplow]

anybody know how to get the darn thing off? 93 pickup. I got the 3 bolts off the firewall side but it seems to be attached to an arm or something from behind the firewall. Any ideas?

You have to pull the cowl vent off to unhook it from the arm.

sorry, unfortunately now I have to ask how the heck that thing is attached? I dont have it in front of me but I dont remember seeing any apparent bolts or anything

you dont have to pull the cowl, just pull on the arm, and you can get the motor out far enough to pop the ball end loose with a pair of pliers


if you cant pull o nthe arm, slightly tap the power to the motor and it will start moving, cut power and it will be far enough out

Thanks man, so is it one of those ball and sockets that just clip together?

take off the size 12 nut that attach's the wiper arm to the motor then just tap it an it will come out
