I've just got hold of the wiper motor and amabout to start fitting it as in Rogue's instructions (great work there mate!)

Has anyone got a cheat-sheet on which wire does what or do I do it the good old fashioned way and nut it out?   

Cheers,

Garry

Great idea Rouge....Did you notice if there was much wear on any of the rods from the bedford?

Rods? Which part would they be?

[John Abbott]

The ones that pivot from the wiper motor

Mine were all fine but then my van is quite a late model and hasn't had a lot of use in the past 15 years.

tried getting the motor out. undid eveying but cant get it 2 come out. is the only way 2 get it out is 2 remove the instrument cluster?

is the HQ-WB wiper motor the standard unit on the bedfords, or is mine a modified unit?

Either way, mine runs the HQ-WB wiper motor..

A later model ford would be the go tho

All I did was undo the bolt on the motor tunnel/firewall and the big ringnuts on the wipers themselves. Took a bit of a tap with a soft hammer on the wiper stems to loosen the assembly and out it came.

The wiring still has me stumped though and I can't get the new motor going - no movement at all. It's got me wondering if I've bought an ebay dodgy.
