Hi all,
My wiper splines on the linkage are shot...the motor turns, but there is no oscillation. The part with the splines is not sold separately. and there is no option it seems, other than to find a good used one, or maybe someone knows the fix for this?

Tightening the bolt down hard does no good.

I may have to pin it.
TIA,
Pat

I can't post the page from the PET, but is is on page 434. #2 on the wiper page.

Can you actually remove the splined part separately? If so, maybe look into matching it with a VW part..

I actually removed the bad part, and replaced it with one I found, probably off a 911. I ground the weld on the part, and re-welded the replacement in. The wipers are fixed. Now, I'll move on to the Fresh air fan.

Hi Rich
My wiper assembly was not quite as bad as the unit in the link.
Thanks!
Pat
