HELP! - 855 Tailgate Wiper not working 850

posted by  someone claiming to be MPB on  Sat Mar 6 13:54 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I believe you will find that the wiper pivot shaft has ceased. If you remove the wiper assembly you can disconnect the pivot shaft and remove it. Clean the shaft and the bushings in the assembly. Re-assemble with ample grease and re-install.

I found that the black plastic pivot cover had split open allowing moisture to get into the pivot shaft.

My rear wiper now operates perfectly.
