Dorman - OE Solutions Windshield Wiper Linkage P/N:602-637
This Dorman wiper linkage, part number 602-803 from Dorman - OE Solutions, transfers the wiper motor's motion to the wiper arms so the blades can sweep the windshield of the 1998-2001 Subaru Forester. It is a direct-fit replacement for that application. When the motor runs but the blades barely move or sit still, a worn linkage may be the cause.
It is backed by Dorman's team of engineers and quality specialists in the United States. Signs a wiper linkage may need replacing include a motor that hums while the blades stay put, blades that move erratically or out of step with each other, and clunking or binding during a sweep. Diagnose the cause before replacing parts, since a faulty motor, switch or loose arm can produce similar symptoms.
