Need to buy a wiper motor and module. Where from?

[BLUETHUNDER]

Well the wipers are sounding very tired,and it continously dumps washer fluid on the rear screen. Anyone know where i can buy the complete unit of motor and module?

[Easy Ed]

Try GM Parts Direct at http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/ ????
Go to the "catalog" tab on the home page, agree to "terms and conditions" in the next window, enter truck info and go to the "Windshield" section then be prepared for sticker shock....Wiper Motor $217.21 Module $156.78 for a 03-07 model year.

Edit, oops, just seen you are in the UK, don't know if they will ship, sorry if not.

Ok. I will give them another look and maybe contact them direct. The only thing thats put me of them,is that the catalogue diagrams of the wiper motor and module bear no resemblance to the actual wiper motor and module. Its a long way to ship back and costly if its wrong.

[Easy Ed]

Never looked at the diagram while looking it up and making the post but I did this morning and you are correct, it doesn't look the same :confused:

Does say at the bottom that you should....

Before proceeding with check out, please confirm part number with our customer service at customerservice@gmpartsdirect.com (customerservice@gmpartsdirect.com) Parts ordered without confirmation are not eligible for return.

Good luck, Ed

Just to bump this back up. Ive sourced a remanufactured wiper motor from Rockautos. But i cant locate a module. Ive had no joy with GM parts direct getting back to me with an e-mail confirming if they stock one or not. I'm appealing to my fellow Hummer brethren for any help with this. As next month the vehicle will need an m.o.t to be used on the road. If the washer jets dont work then i wanted be granted an m.o.t and wont be allowed to use it on the road. Mark

If your just concerned about the washer dumping fluid on the rear window and the wipers motors are still functioning, you dont need to replace it. I'm betting it dumps the washer fluid when you hit the brakes...

Do a search off my username, I made a post about water getting in the motor assembly. Basically pull off the airboxes, and panel, pop off the bottom cover on the motor where the wire harness plugs in and take out the board. There will be carbon tracks from water directly tracking across the lowest point on the board. Clean that **** off, glop the board up w/ some electrical grease over all the components and put it back together w/ some silicone. Problem solved.

this is an old post but over the last few days here in CA we have had severe rain... wipres acting up... only fast speed, and water dumping out at rear screen.

vehicle was parked front upwards in drive way so suspected rain in motor or something.
pointed nose downward over night and wipres starting working again.

but as soon as i put ignition on water dumping out at the back.
took out relay to stop water .. wipers seem ok but no front washers.

tried to find your post about strip down has it been moved?

thanks

must of posted my pics of the tear down on another site.. Pretty much the same as this post, but I had a few more pics than Easy Ed ;) -

The straight side of the board opposite/back side is where you will find the problem, its the lowest point, should pull out of the housing....I know I completely removed the board to clean it and seal it up. I actually had carbon tracks like in an old distributor on mine.

If you have an 05+, there's a recall specifically for this reason.

[BLUETHUNDER]

I think mine really has had it though. I followed some of the threads on here regarding the trouble with the module. I stripped mine out. Cleaned up the circuit board,re-sealed. Everything was fine for a few weeks. Then i got the fluid pumping out the rear as soon as i touched the ignition. Ive now left the fuse out altogether.

[[__--MUD--__]]

Did you actually coat the board in some type of electrical grease? Or just seal up the box? If you did, you should be able to damn near submerge the board in water and it will still work.

<<< I would appreciate the recall if you can get a hold of it... I am going to call my local dealer. I am out of warranty with 72,000 miles but worth a try.. the cluster has also started acting up....never ends >>

THANKS

[BLUETHUNDER]

Desperate now for a supplier of the module. GM parts direct do not ship outside the U.S and Rockauto,s do not stock the part. Does anyone know of anyone else that would hold the part and who do ship internationally???.Really desperate now.

Tracey thanks once again for your help.

[twr]

Hi your welcome. I have bought from them before with no problems. If you call them ask for INTERNET PARTS SALES and talk to John Z that is who i deal with, he is very nice. They may not have it in stock but can usally get stuff in a week or so.

[BLUETHUNDER]

Well i ordered the part today. Cover including the circuit board. Cost was $72.Hopefully this should sort my wiper problems. TWR thanks for the link.

[twr]

Hi did you phone and talk to John or just order on the internet?

[BLUETHUNDER]

I tried calling over the weekend. But i couldn't get an answer. Guess they dont work weekends. Ordered from there site in the end.

[kmleong]

I think that i have the same problem as you, same symptoms anway. Do you have a part number? I looked on the link and came up with $188.44

[BLUETHUNDER]

Yeah sure. Its #19120103. It should list it as cover. I had a confirmation e-mail back to ay it was for cover including (circuit board).

[kmleong]

Thanks Bluethunder, I did a little further checking on this.
GM Parts Direct sells at $58.32.
GM Parts Worldwide sells at $71.47 & $48.00 S/H for a total of $119.47.
Locally I got it for $155.68 CDN., taxes in from the dealer because I couldn't wait for 4 - 21 days for GM Parts Worldwide. The new part has a thicker gasket. I had great difficulty in getting it compressed enough to get the latches to catch. Hopefully it works this time.

Just had my rear washer go nuts too - Read through the thread - grabbed some tools and went to work.

Had a bit of moisture build up on the pcb cleaned it up but still had the same problem with the rear washer pump running continiously. New PCB time....

However being totally bloodyminded I took the board out of the cover, cleaned it again and dug a multimeter out..........

And the findings are.......

One resistor at the bottom of the board had water damage and had dropped from about 380 Ohms to 11 Ohms which instantly engaged the wash relay on the underside of the board.

53209

Stole a pic and marked the resistor.

Removed resistor and all now works perfectly though one day I suppose I ought to get round to putting in a replacement.

Due to the location of the resistor I imagine this is the main cause of the washer going nuts so I hope it helps some people

[Easy Ed]

Biskxp, You didn't steal it you improved it ;)

Thanks for the heads up on the resistor, I would not have figured it out :(

Thanks for the tip.did you remove it completely???.

[Biskxp]

Yeah removed it completely. 2 second job with a soldering iron. Just been for a drive and all seems to be working no problems now!

[[__--MUD--__]]

good job diaging the bad component! Most ppl would of just said F it and bought a new one.

The trouble of living in the UK is trying to source the parts quickly - I should have a new one heading to me - in a week or so. And as someone who has to sort fked electronics on a daily basis I thought it was worth at least a quick look!!

[BLUETHUNDER]

GM Parts worldwide has been a good service. Posted on the 5th Jan. Cleared customs and delivered on 9th. Still not as good as Rockautos though. I recieved a brake caliper from them for the H2. Ordered and delivered within 2 days.

[Biskxp]

Good to know. Had the old girl 3 years now and stacked 70,000 miles on her. Now getting all the little problems you get 2 days after your extended warranty has finished.......

[BLUETHUNDER]

Nice to know a fellow Brits on here.I was beginning to think i was the only one.

[BLUETHUNDER]

Just an update on this. Finally got around to fitting the new circuit board yesterday. All the problems are now solved and everything is back to normal:excited:

[PaHumBug]

Blue Thunder,
I can't find the cover and circuit board. What website and what part number did you use? I've dried out and resealed mine twice, but my wipers only work when it's NOT raining (of course), so I'm going to replace my circuit board.

[H2ummer]

Gene Culley at http://www.gmpartshouse.com/ can help you.
I buy Hummer and Corvette parts from him. His shipping is much cheaper than GM Parts Direct.
