Jeep: Grand Cherokee Rear Wiper, jeep grand cherokee, remanufactured motors


Question
I have a 95 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a rear wiper that does not work. I have 12 volts to the plug on the motor. I have installed two remanufactured motors, but they do not work. Parts store says something else must be wrong. Any idea?

Answer
The best and easiest way, would be to bench test the wiper motor before hand to ensure it is working and not the cause of your frustration. You can do this by applying power and ground from a different source (ex. car battery)

You say you have 12 volts, but do you have ground there as well? IT could just as likely be the ground that is causing your problems.
