FAQs

Does this motor come with the wiper arm?

No, this product is the motor unit only; you will need to reuse your existing wiper arm and blade.

How do I know if this fits my car?

Check your existing wiper motor for one of the following OEM part numbers: 2038200542, 2038204642, or 2038205342.

Is any special software programming required?

Generally, no. This is a mechanical/electrical replacement part that functions as a direct 'plug-and-play' unit.

What is the weight of this motor?

The motor weighs approximately 1.01 kg.

Can I install this if I have no mechanic experience?

If you are comfortable removing plastic interior trim pieces and working with basic hand tools, it is manageable, but consult your vehicle service manual first.

Troubleshooting

Wiper does not move at all after installation.

Check the fuse box for a blown wiper fuse and ensure the wiring harness connector is fully clicked into place.

Motor makes a clicking noise but the arm does not move.

Verify that the wiper arm nut is tightened securely onto the motor spindle and that the arm linkage is not obstructed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality build ensures long-term reliability
  • Direct replacement avoids the need for modifications
  • Provides consistent rear window visibility
  • Uses standard 12V electrical architecture

Cons

  • Requires specific vehicle compatibility verification
  • Installation may require removal of interior trim panels
  • Professional installation recommended for those without mechanical experience

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before purchasing or beginning the installation, you must cross-reference your vehicle's current part with the following OEM references: 2038200542, 2038204642, or 2038205342.

Installation Steps

  1. Disconnect the vehicle battery to prevent electrical shorts.
  2. Carefully remove the interior trim panel covering the rear wiper assembly.
  3. Unscrew the mounting bolts from the 3 mounting bores.
  4. Disconnect the electrical wiring harness.
  5. Align the new motor and secure the screw connections.
  6. Reconnect the wiring and test the wiper before replacing the trim panel.

Care Instructions

To extend the life of your motor, ensure the rear wiper blade is replaced at least once a year. A stiff or damaged blade creates unnecessary drag, which puts extra strain on the motor's internal gears.
