Wiper Linkage

Wiper pull rod is a component of the windscreen wiper. This system operates windscreen wiper motor. Reversible motors operate without linkage as they are equipped with a control unit. Vehicle with classic circular engines need the wiper pull rod. We speak about a mechanism one end of which is connected with the windscreen wiper motor, but another one with screen wipers. 

Wear or an accident can result in a mechanical defect. If the windscreen wiper moves unevenly, the pull rod is damaged. Ball bearings that operate on joints are particularly susceptible to damage. In most cases it is necessary to replace the whole wiper pull rod. Linkage is subject to replacement in rare cases. Usually it is not difficult to replace the pull rod. Any car owner can do it. You need to remove the screen wiper and then to place it back. 

It is very important to select an original spare car part. You need to know the car model to order the necessary wiper pull rod. Do not use the part that approximately fits the car. Malfunction of the wiper pull rod can result in glass damage. Does your car needs brake disk replacement? Or you need a new brake booster, flasher, expansion tank, brake shoes, nozzle or parking brake cable? In our assortment there are spare car parts for all popular and common car models.

How to identify a faulty windscreen wiper mechanism

Diagnostics of the mechanism should start with visual inspection of its components. The link should not be deformed, damaged or corroded. Special attention should be paid to the plastic bush and the lock ring, as due to these components the link interacts with the ball of the crank mechanism. Also, inspect the plastic elements, and make sure that all components of the mechanism are sufficiently lubricated.

For more thorough inspection of the link, it should be completely dismantled. The service life of the component is not limited; however, the link should be inspected annually, especially at the end of the cold season.
