Dorman - OE Solutions Windshield Wiper Linkage P/N:602-314
When a failed crank arm leaves your wipers stalled on the glass, the Dorman - OE Solutions Windshield Wiper Linkage 602-205 is designed to help restore wiper operation. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1997-2005 Chevrolet Venture, 1999-2005 Pontiac Montana and 1997-2004 Oldsmobile Silhouette. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of applications.
The linkage carries motion from the wiper motor to the wiper arms and turns the motor's rotation into the sweep of the blades across the glass. This Dorman wiper linkage is engineered to match the function and performance of the original linkage on select applications.
Signs the linkage may need replacing include a wiper motor that runs while the blades stay still, blades that move erratically or out of sync, or knocking during wiper operation. A motor or switch fault can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing the linkage.
