• Q: How to service the windshield wiper motor on 2002 Ford Explorer Sport Trac?

  A: The first service step for the windshield wiper motor includes disconnecting the washer hose from the LH washer jet nozzle then removing the cowl grilles. The job to service the windshield wiper motor starts with unclipping the wiper motor from the RH wiper mounting arm and pivot shaft then disconnecting the RH wiper mounting arm and pivot shaft from the LH wiper mounting arm and pivot shaft before shifting both components away from the windshield wiper motor. Service of the windshield wiper motor begins with disconnecting the electrical connector and unfastening the ground strap nut followed by setting aside the ground strap. The motor can then be removed using stud bolts and bolts. Caution should be exercised when working with this motor since the permanent internal magnets consist of glass-like components so handle the motor with care to stop striking it. Installation demands a proper position of the windshield wiper motor followed by bolt and stud bolt installation while you must protect the magnets from damage. Reattach the ground strap after installing the nut followed by electrical connector connection and wiper mounting and pivot shaft arm assembly to the windshield wiper motor by installing first the LH assembly onto the crank pin and afterwards the RH assembly and retaining clip placement. The cowl grilles should be reinstalled following connection of the washer hose to the LH washer jet nozzle before installing the LH wiper pivot arm with optional adjustment of the LH wiper pivot arm.
