Hello, my delay wipers work fine, but the regular and high speed are very slow. It seems there's not enough power. Could this be the motor itself or is there a relay for this?

Thanks, Mike

I'm moving this post to OEM tech for you.

what year Jeep?

BlueRidgeMark

Yes.

Yes.


But first....

See my sig, #1. First thing. See Cruiser's site (link in his sig) for detailed info, especially if you have a Renix.

Sorry folks it is a remix, 1987 Wagoner limited. I am just getting into this thing by fixing the obvious first. I did the Greg Smith lock fix (works great) ,and replaced a power window regulator (so far so good). I plan on starting Cruiser 54's remix tips later this week. I didn't know the wipers may be tied into one of the tips. I,ll see if I can trace the wire to a ground.

Thanks , Mike

Tip 1....

Oswalla

I lived with slow wipers for quite while. A swipe on dry windshield would only complete 3/4 of the swipe, would not come down to the park position unless windshield was wet/raining. Snow build up, would barely push snow off. Mine also had a bit of run off at top of stroke, went off windshield about an 1". I bit the bullet for a reman, new one will push snow off or run dry without hesitation. So, yes its possible to have just a plain worn out motor.

While you have it off, change the bushings too. I have changed mine 2x"s in 12 years, sloppy both times although second time not as bad but I had the motor out already.
