FAQs
Is this motor compatible with all Vauxhall Insignia models?
No, it is compatible only with specific models that utilize OEM references 1273424, 39136727, or 13269910. Always check your specific vehicle manual.
Do I need special tools to install this?
You will typically need a socket set for removing the tailgate trim and a wrench to remove the external wiper arm nut.
Does this kit come with a new wiper arm?
No, this product is the replacement wiper motor only. You will need to reuse your existing wiper arm and blade.
What is the voltage requirement?
The motor operates on a standard 12V automotive electrical system.
Why is my rear wiper moving slowly?
Slow movement is often caused by internal corrosion in the motor or excessive friction from an old, dried-out wiper blade.
Troubleshooting
Wiper does not move after installation
Check the fuse box for a blown wiper fuse and ensure all electrical connectors are fully seated and clicked into place.
Wiper arm moves but makes a grinding noise
Verify that the wiper arm is properly tightened onto the spindle and that there is no debris or obstruction under the wiper base.
Wiper stops in the wrong position
The motor may have been installed while the linkage was out of sync. Remove the arm and re-index it to the correct parking position.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this unit, you must first remove the interior tailgate trim panel to access the motor assembly. Ensure the vehicle ignition is switched off and the battery is disconnected to prevent accidental activation. When installing, carefully align the motor shaft with the exterior wiper arm linkage to ensure a proper seal and smooth operation.
Compatibility Check: Before purchase, confirm your vehicle's OEM part number matches 1273424, 39136727, or 13269910.
Care Tips: To extend the life of your new motor, ensure the rear wiper blades are replaced regularly. A worn or stiff blade increases friction, putting unnecessary strain on the motor gears. In winter, clear all snow and ice from the glass before turning on the wiper system to prevent the motor from seizing.
