Wiper Motor Drag

I got the wiper motr working but when it pivots to the top the motor stops---I can help it go the full revolution but has a lot of drag. Is the motor shot or is there a place to grease the fittings?? BTW I checked the battery its fully charged...

Re: Wiper Motor Drag

My '69 does that occaisionally so when it does, I climb up and shoot some WD40 at the base of the shaft where the motor comes up thru the plenum under the cowling.

Re: Wiper Motor Drag

also cleaning and lubricating the wiper towers(where wiper arms attach to) helps alot
