Hi all
My wiper motor for my 914/6 is evidently not rebuildable as the brush holders are toast. The motor is not the same as the 914/4 version. Any ideas on replacements or work arounds? TIA Jack |

I have a spare 914-6 wiper assembly that I may consider parting with. Its been from a CA car stored last 30 years.
PM me for details if you end up not finding another solution. |
