Front wiper motor problem
The problem is that the output shaft from the gearbox is neither lubricatee or sealed and rusts solid. I can refurbish for £80 which is more cost effective than buying a new one for £280 which will in turn fail for the same reasons BillB

The problerm is not the motor but the output shaft from the gearbox which will be solid with rust as this is not sealed or lubricated I can refurbish for £80 which is more cost effective that replacing the motor /gearbox for £280 BillB

Front wiper motor problem
Hi All, Have any of you had a problem with the front windscreen wiper motor where the wipers continually blow the fuse. If so I have a solution to the problem and if you want any help please get in touch as Nissan's only solution is to replace the Motor/gearbox unit for around £280 ! BillB
