I've read a few wiper motor conversion threads, but does anyone know where you can still get a wiper motor for a 240? Obviously, not new but a used one that works.

It seems I looked everywhere, and everything points me to a conversion.

Did you at least try to clean and lubricate the linkage? It made a significant difference on my car.

There is a guy in Escondido CA who has rebuilt units. He is expensive as hell. Not sure how to get ahold of the guy. Maybe someone here knows about him?

Zmanofwashington has what you need. Give Oliver a call. 800-518-5480

I took out the entire assembly, lubricated and greased it, no problems. Works like a charm. If you dont count that my wiper switch goes crazy occasionally.

BTW. anyone knows where to get those nice chrome wipers?

Gentleman,

Thank you, Datsunstore never showed up on my search list.

I have not tried the lubricating and grease, will give that a shot this weekend. It's not fried, but only moves the wipers a few inches and then stops.

Thanks for the tips and info.

I have a series 1 wiper motor that works if you are interested. It is in "as-pulled" condition and it needs a new connector and a little cleaning but it does work on both speeds. PM me if interested.

Also, they occasionally show up rebuilt on ebay for around $300.00. Not sure if they are series 1 though.

I've seen plenty on eBay from Nissan dealers.

Courtesy Nissan has those nice chrome wipers, Part number, B6370-E4100 wiper blade, replaces B6370-00001. Less than $20 each 2 years ago.

By the way, what I did was after removing the linkages from the motor, I blasted out the 30+ years of grease and grime with brake cleaner. After that I used the white spray grease.

I was very pleased with the results when I was caught in the rain.

Thanks Steve,

Hopefully mine will come back to life......
