I noticed the rear wiper doesnt do a complete half circle wipe? Is it like this with all H3's? Or do I have a defective wiper module?

 

normal.

 

Thanks!!! I was getting worried. Whew!

 

When I take apart the rear door to install my rear marker lights, I was planning on looking at the motor to see what would be involved with increasing the sweep distance. I may involve a small mechanical change as well, but guess I'll see what can be done.

 

more than likely it cannot be changed. it's not like a gear and chain run mechanism where you can change the motion by changing gears or something. It's probably an all in one unit (motor +gear mechanism) that mounts to post that the wiper arm mounts to.

 

I'm sure, but I'm kinda Macgyverish with stuff like this, so we'll see.

 

unhook the motor then attach some fishing lineto the wiper arm withsome chewing gum,run it under the rear door some how to the driver compartment so you can manually get the arm to sweep another 6 inches from factory

 

or........you could replace the wiper arm with a 2" diameter, loose spring. (like found on the old style storm doors). Then, install the proper electronic device to increase the voltage to the wiper motor. You'll need something with enough power to whip the wiper arm at approximately 84mph. The new device will then flex with the generated speed to allow your wiper blade to bend downward to the left and wipe the entire range of motion!

There! Problem solved.....any other questions?
