I still have to attempt that test, perhaps tomorrow. But it really makes you wonder, why the old wiper motors run so darn good, and don't get hot! I'll try it out sometime. Either way, weird stuff, that's for sure...

Fuse box was in great shape, I even cleaned it up a bit with no change, bypassed the capacitors and whatnot, cleaned the connectors yadda yadda yadda

Okay everyone, I'm starting to get very weirded out by my wipers. Let me explain. So I actually installed the OLD one OEM with the truck from 1984... The thing wipes like no tomorrow... SO FAST!!! So fast in fact the wiper blades are hitting the sides of the windshield gasket the whole time. The...

I can give that a try, but that of course means the wipers will not turn off. But I suppose it would be a good chance to see if it stops working. I just wonder why it stops but then actually starts again. Considering that there are no circuit breakers that is

I'll give it a go in the morning, although if it doesn't, it's going to definitely become harder to solve... I saw on the civvy version, some had actual circuit breakers. The CUCV doesn't have any do they? I ask because the wiper motor will indeed start working again after it cools/un stalls. I...

I am going to resurrect this old thread and talk about what has been happening. My wiper motor still does this, and I've replaced it with an ACDelco one. The wiper linkages were all greased with lithium, and I did remove and cowl and it was all clean under there. Wiper linkages shows little to...

As mentioned in the original post, the capacitors were removed, no change in result. As for the grounding thing, I too noticed the ones from AutoZone are not grounded the same way, although I do have an ACDelco one and it does have the strap. I'll add the ground just in case. I inspected ALL...

I like the idea of running my own ground. I would have wondered if the motor was getting a good ground. (Maybe it's not getting enough current, causing it to stall and cook the internals?). Also, Hendersonr, when you say if the wipers are pressed against the window, do you mean if the wipers are...

Hey everyone, I have a question that's been on my mind for quite some time. On my CUCV my wiper motor's fluid pump broke so I replaced it with a cheapo one from AutoZone. I noticed that the motors we almost too weak to move the wipers, so I tried swapping them... 4 more times with the same...
