Honda wiper swap

[woton121]

I read the write up on this and headed to the JY, I pulled a motor from a 91 Civic. But the mount and pigtail are diffrent than the one in the write up. Mine has four mounting bolts and a round wire conector. Anyone else been able to make this one work or is back to the JY for another one?

Can send a picture if that would help??

Thanks,

You could always bench test it. A mechanic I know was having issues doing the swap for a customer. The Honda wiper motor kept blowing a fuse. He gave me another wiper motor he had, and I created a setup with 2 lantern batteries and clip leads. I was able to replicate the running and the parking feature with that. It turned out he gave me the only Honda wiper motor that would work with the swap.

Are the wire colors the same as in Dave's write-up?

If it has 4 mounting screws it will not work - I just upgraded to the Honda wiper motor over the winter - gotta have a 3 screw mount.

crap!

I will take it back, but what year/make should I be looking for?

The JY said it was a 91 Civic, and I looked at the other one they had, both were the same. The dreded 4 leg spider.

This one was mounted inside the engine compartment on the Pass side, is there another mounting spot to keep an eye out for? (may help to find the three hole mount)

Thanks for the help guys.

Did you use the search engine to do any research? Did you find Dave's write up? The models are stated there correct?
