Default Wiper motor / linkage

My wipers have never parked correctly and it's really starting to bug me . How do I get to the motor / linkage on a blobeye to sort it out ?

Thanks

Nigel.

Isn't it as simple as taking the arms off and put them back on in the right place or does the motor keep stopping in different places ?

I wish it was that simple , it's something to do with the linkage and it's position on the motor apparently. Hoping for a dry day this weekend to have a fettle .

Easy enough job - just be careful removing the skuttle panel as they can break easily.

Just remove all the bolts and plastic clips you can see and the whole linkage feeds out of one of the large holes under the skuttle panel.

I am waiting for some new linkages but today i took the wipers off and the cowling and could calculate that the freeplay i have is all at the motor end. Trouble is im not sure how to get at the key linkage ( its hardly visible and no cut away at that point). Do I undo the 4 large motor bolts and then what? or do i have to remove a black plastic motor cover first ( three phillips screws ) and then what happens when i try to pull the motor out? please help mine is 1998 uk turbo.

thanks

Tim
