Wipe away the sweat !!!! ..............

Having decided that my windscreen wipers are coming to a park at the wrong side of the screen and hence not wipe the bit in front of the driver, it was time to try and alter the motion to suit. Of course with the scuttle firmly attached and plumbed in, it is the devils own job to remove the motor and effect the change. A liberal application of foul and abusive language where the parentage of the vehicle designer was questioned in full, I managed to remove the motor, remove the gearbox cover and on the hidden side of the driving sprocket reveal the mystical nylon detent which has to be moved to the corresponding holes 180 degrees opposite. Only one photo I am afraid as I was covered in grease and very foul tempered by then !!. After moving the white nylon thing as per photo, the unit was re assembled and re fitted, again with liberal use of foul language and after having dropped the nuts and washers for the umpteenth time finally got it done. All now seems to work as it should. Be warned if you have not fitted your motor and it shows an arrow pointing away from the motor in the direction of the wiper drive tube then it is more than likely incorrect. My friend popped down with his scuttle which is not fitted and we did the same job in twenty minutes mine took over 2 hours !

Nylon detent to be moved to opposite holes.

2 hours to total today 211 hours total.
