Parkesie Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Looks like my RH wiper motor might have let water in so ill be taking it out for a better look tomorrow. Anyone got a source for good used replacements? Im looking at the RH one because it was sat on a sodden pile of sound deadening and leaves. So that lot will be coming out aswell. Quote
paul.h Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 I guess you have seen this in the Common Problems topic and the topic linked in it 43. New C5 (X7) front wipers not working properly.Before replacing one of the 2 wiper motors, it may be possible to do a fix to the motor wiring pins - see this topic from c5vtr http://www.citroen-o...x7-wiper-motor/ Quote
Parkesie Posted October 27, 2015 Author Posted October 27, 2015 Yeah had a look at that and niw ive had a poke around and taken the back off the motors it is the right hand motor thats let water in board was soaked and furry. Cleaned it up re soldered a couple of conections and it worked for a while then packed up. Got a 2nd hand one through ebay so hopefully be back on the road by the weekend. Quote
Parkesie Posted November 7, 2015 Author Posted November 7, 2015 Finally got round to fitting the new motor and all is well again. Quote
paul.h Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Did you have to seal the new motor to stop water getting in ? Quote
Parkesie Posted November 7, 2015 Author Posted November 7, 2015 Replacement motor has was re sealed by the seller so saved me a job. Quote
