AutoTex Windshield-Wiper Motor - 4R2.12.R110D Standard Replacement Motor Crosses with Wexco, WWF12C18 Series, Ongaro 30991, Grainger 2YPZ6 - 12V, 2.5" Shaft

It's a near perfect replacement for the wiper motor in my 2000 Sea Ray 270DA. I was able to remove the old wiper motor via the light fixture over the stove/sink. This motor fits thru that opening and I was able to install it, although I had to stand on a stool to get my arm far enough inside. My boat has no parking wire, so once I figured out which was which, wiring it back up was a cinch. I rated this 5 stars because it can be installed without removing the ceiling over the galley.I've had it in the boat for several months now, and it works perfectly.

The instructions are not real clear and it wasnt real easy to get it set up as I had trouble lining up the holes in the gear, however im very happy that I have the ability to set it up for my particular application. It is very universal. It operates reliably, wiring was very simple and its pretty quiet too.

Hoo boy, these Wexco folks are bare bones when it comes to instructions. These motors seem very solid and work great with their pantagraph wiper arms. What do you get in the box? The motor and one printed page of instructions for setting the sweep angle and park left/right on one page of paper. The back of the page of instructions is blank. Great but how do you wire it? There are three contacts evident but a slow and fast speed. These are self parking so there needs to be a constant power for the parking. So there's four wires involved. So you need to ground the negative to the case on a nut away from the 3 contacts mentioned. Fortunately, there's the internet to find out this stuff.The ability to adjust the sweep angle and whether it parks to left or right is extremely flexible and well thought out. One note, the plastic gear on the worm gear moves back a little in the case to make you wonder if the crank is going to go into gear and trash the motor. It doesn't. The gear goes back in place once assembled fully.If you remove the platter to switch the parking from one side to another, I strongly recommend putting some thread lock solution on the two screws that hold the platter. Otherwise, one of them may back out and cause the motor to fail.If you are going to mount two of them on one circuit, it is important to isolate them with 5 amp diodes. Otherwise, they will backfeed between each other and never park when shut off. A pack of diodes are cheap and easy to put in the power supplies to each wiper. Just get the polarity right.Suggestion: If Wexco is trying to save paper, how about just printing this wiring stuff on the back of the one sheet you put out for the park and sweep angles? It won't cost you extra paper and just some extra printer toner. Not a big ask here. Updated one year later: the replacement wiper motor I just bought does have wiring instructions now.

This windshield wiper motor is installed on our golf cart and works very well. I recommend checking the internet (Google) for wiring instructions and for parking instructions. When I first installed it , it parked on the left side of the windshield which is right in front of the driver so it has to be changed. Otherwise the installation was fairly easy.

I like that it has multiple “sweep” and “park” settings but the instructions are not that great. Had to do a few trial and errors before getting it right. Used on a Grady White boat. Otherwise fairly easy level installation.

I needed a windshield wiper for our ClubCar to make it street legal. The challenge was our cart has a safety glass single piece windshield with a predrilled hole on passenger side. This made using the stock manual wiper kits impractical as you would need long arms to reach - plus it wouldn't be very safe while in motion. After a lot of research and contacting several motor manufacturers I opted on this motor. I purchased wiper arm and a 2 speed switch along with this to do full install. Installation was pretty straightforward as I had 12V available nearby. I added rubber grommets on shaft through glass to hold in place and a screw into frame. Super secure and is very clean install. Looks like it was factory installed. Not an inexpensive solution but very solid and works well.

Direct replacement for Grady-White boat. Had to crack open the case to adjust and limit the travel. Use the existing motor for reference. There are three leads to this motor, replacement is not complex or difficult to figure out. Motor has been working fine in salt water use for 2+ seasons so don't let the negative reviews scare you aware from a DIY job. Manuals are available online if needed. If you require a printed manual and detailed installation instructions its best to leave this job to the professionals.

I only received wiper motor. No instructions and no switch. Well made motor, but they need to supply what they say they will. Not happy with Wexco. The distributor, Autotex, informed me that this version doesn't include a switch, even though they say that it does in the third bullet of description above. I consider that to be false advertising!
