Volvo Windshield wipers

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by Bill from www.rlstate.com, Nov 1, 2006.

  1. 1999 Volvo S80 T6 ... wipers just suddenly stopped working. It sounds
    like the motor may still be working, but the wipers do not move in the
    least. Any ideas?

    Try checking to see if the nuts that hold the arms to the pivot are
    tight, that just happened to me, although to have both nuts fail at the
    same time is unlikely.... Perhaps the arm inside came undone somewhere

    If the motor is still turning and makes the usual sound, it is probably
    OK.

    Look for a disconnect between the output shaft of the wiper motor where
    it connects to the wiper linkage: could have come loose.
