How do you adjust the windshield wiper on a jeep?

Generally with most vehicles, you have to remove a cap where the wiper arm attaches to the post. That will expose a nut that you can remove (with the wiper arm up in the air to release the spring tension), then carefully pull the arm off the splined shaft and rotate it 1 tooth (in your case, CCW). Put the nut back on and test it.

Why is my wiper blade motor not working?

Similar to the issue above, if you notice that your wiper blades are operating at a different speed or intermittent setting than you selected, it’s a good indication that the relay is damaged and needs to be replaced. This is also a symptom that you don’t want to avoid as it may cause the wiper blade motor to overheat and break prematurely.

How do you change the wiper motor on a Jeep Wrangler?

You have to unbolt the struts from the windshield frame and lay the frame out on the hood to switch the wiper motor. Getting the plug undone is the tricky part. The part that is on the motor side will fit through the opening in the top of the dash, but the part on the Jeep harness side doesn’t.

Can a low speed windshield wiper still work?

Use your multimeter to bridge between the low speed terminals on the switch and the wiper motor; with the switch moved to “Low” you should get at least a 10-volt reading. If you do, the wiring is fine; if you do not, the wiring has failed. Repeat the exercise with the intermediate speed.

What causes the intermittent wiper to stop working?

If you make a change in the settings and the wipers don’t react, it’s most likely due to a malfunction in the intermittent wiper relay. This can lead to a potentially unsafe driving situation as sometimes we encounter weather conditions that require the use of the intermittent switch.
