To install the wiper motor linkage, position the front wiper module into the cowl plenum as a unit and place the front wiper motor bracket rubber insulator over the weld stud located on the bottom of the cowl plenum. Loosely install the two screws that secure the ends of the front wiper module bracket to the cowl plenum, tightening the outboard screw first, followed by the inboard screw, to a torque of 8 Nm (72 in. lbs.). Next, install and tighten the nut that secures the front wiper motor bracket rubber insulator to the two weld studs on the bottom of the cowl plenum to a torque of 7.5 Nm (67 in. lbs.). Reconnect the wire harness connector for the front wiper motor to the motor connector receptacle and reinstall the cowl plenum cover/grille panel over the cowl plenum. Ensure the
Ignition Switch is turned to the ON position, then cycle the front wiper switch ON and OFF to return the wiper motor and linkage to their natural park position before reinstalling both front
Wiper Arms onto the wiper pivots. Finally, reconnect the battery negative cable.
