Q: How to replace the wiper motor (LHD) on Cadillac CTS?
A: You will need Wiper Linkage Separator (J 39232) and Wiper Linkage Installer (J 39529) to change the wiper motor on the left-hand drive. Unscrew the wiper transmission to dispose of it while disconnecting wiper motor crank arm connections to the wiper motor with the help of the Wiper Linkage Separator (J 39232). Unscrew the three mounting screws of the wiper motor from the wiper motor module and take out the wiper motor. Install the wiper motor onto the wiper motor module assembly and fasten it using the screws which you should tighten to 10 N.m (89 lb in). Once the drive links attach to the motor crank using a Wiper Linkage Installer, you can install the wiper transmission back and test the new wiper system for its operational performance.
Q: How to service and repair the rear wiper motor on a Cadillac Escalade?
A: You need to remove the Wiper Arm first before taking off the motor nut and spacer from the shaft. First take off the interior trim panel followed by unplugging the Wiper Motor electrical connector. Next you should pull out the Wiper Motor by unfastening its two screws. Start by fitting the Wiper Motor and pin two screws into it. Then tighten the screws to 19 n.m (14 lb ft).

Q: How to replace the wiper motor on Cadillac XLR?
A: You need to start by taking off the air inlet grille panel then removing the wiper drive system module and Wiper Motor crank arm together with the Wiper Motor mounting screws. This dislodges the Wiper Motor from its position in the Wiper Motor module. Place the Wiper Motor onto the Wiper Motor support features before fastening its screws at 10 n.m which equals 89 lb in torque. Add the wiper drive system element into place along with the Wiper Motor crank arm. When servicing the wiper system and pulling the washer fluid line upwards towards the air intake you must reposition it by removing the wheelhouse access panel because it creates interference. Reinstall the air inlet panel before checking that the wiper system functions correctly.
