Went to fit a new wiper motor, just out of the box. Thought it would be a simple disconnect the wiper arm cable from old motor then attach it to new motor. What I did not realise until I took the cover off the actuator arm in the motor casing, was that the new motor did not include the large gear wheel and actuator arm. It was purely the motor and worm drive. As that was the bit I thought had caused the original problem, (wiper stuck and motor giving off smoke!), I had assumed that the gear wheel and actuator arm would be part and parcel of the wiper motor unit. As it happened I had to re-use the gear wheel and arm from the old motor.
Has this to be ordered separately? part no anyone?:mad:

The Crank and primary link are sold separately part numbers for these parts are
up to vin number 1A622423 = 517646
from vin number 2A622424 = DLW000020

vast range of prices for these parts some are of poor quality watch what you are getting (that is if you want it to last)
 
Suspect the large gear wheel had a flay spot where the cam for the park position switch is. Think it jammed there. The actual cable to the wiper arms is well greased and moves freely
