Ok here is my problem. I pulled my wiper motor out of the engine bay and unbolted it from the little thing on the back (bell,crank,whatever you call it). and now I put the motor back it and align the crank at what I think is correct and all the wipers do it pull down and kinda sit at the bottom of the windsheild and pulse but wont ever come up. I can see that they force down and then relive the pressure (trying to come up) i can see this in the arms flexing. So how is that bellcrank supposed to be alligned on the motor to make my wipers work.



Thanks In Advance

You actually didn't want to unbolt it from that - once you unbolt the wiper motor itself, you'll see a little 'lip' on the linkage itself, that just slides over the metal wall, and holds itself in place.

You then pop the ball-socket connection apart.

You also cry as you see the linkage bushing fall to pieces, and realize NOBODY MAKES A FREAKING AFTERMARKET BUSHING FOR US :3d_frown:

uh, yeah - mine's sitting at about 165 degrees, when looking at it from the back.
