How it works: The wiper linkage carries motion from the wiper motor to the wiper arm pivots, so the blades sweep back and forth across the windshield. This Dorman wiper linkage is cataloged for the right-side position.
Signs this part may need replacing: the wiper motor runs but the blades do not move, one blade stops or moves erratically, the blades fall out of sync, or you hear a clunk or rattle while the wipers run. Because a motor, switch or wiring fault can cause similar symptoms, diagnose the cause before replacing. If a worn or broken linkage is the cause, this unit replaces it.
