just wanted to say thank you because today- I, a 47 yr old lady on the internet switched out my linkage, all on my own, no help. I even used the old transmission and just put it on the new linkage. This video was the best out of all the ones I watched, and I SO appreciated the comments saying I didn't need to unhook the hood! (i didn't!!!) THANK YOU.

@@HomeOwnerRepair hey, so this did not go precisely as planned. Everything works, but the wipers resting point is now halfway up the windshield. It's not calibration, they go all the way down and then go back up. Any ideas? I even had a mechanic out. he thought it might be a programming issue. But how?

[@martinmorehouse9645]

This worked for me. I used the original wiper motor, had my wife hold the hood open, and everything worked. Thanks for the clear explanation and demonstration. Mine failed in exactly the same way, at the passenger side crank arm.

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

Thanks for watching . Glad this helped you out.

[@dougdornbos5173]

THANK-YOU!!! This allowed me to do this job instead of hiring it out with a 7 day wait.

[@GTLIMO]

After replacing the transmission with the help of your video, I bought the $3 repair clip available from China, Amazon, ebay, Wal-mart, etc. to repair the original transmission so I now have a spare. Thanks again for your excellent video.

Had this exact issue on my 2014. This video helped me diagnose the problem, order the right part (and get a better price!), and get the repair completed. Because of the lessons learned that you shared, I was able to do this entire job in about 45 minutes. Thanks for blazing the trail and then sharing for all of us KZbin mechanics out here.

Glad this helped you out.

Same thing happened to me in Albany today! Figured it was a gear or a grommet. This explains it. Thanks!

Thanks for the video. Did mine today. Took a little less than an hour. Would've been quicker but I forgot to reconnect the power line.

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

I have a 2003 Ford Explorer, however, the video was helpful as to putting the transmission back into the vehicle. Thank you.

FYI, you can remove and install with the covers off and the hood closed. One man job. I just did it.

Im not good with puzzles, thanks Ford

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

lol...it's a little tricky to worm back in there.

[@chuckb.5076]

It’s a gosh darn Rubik’s cube! Wonder if a big hammer would work better. 😂🤣. Thanks for a good video.

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

What a pain in the ass...lol wasn’t bad after we figured it out. Hey we’re here to screw stuff up so you don’t have to🤣

Wow, that is one of the best hair styles I've ever seen! Nice job!

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

lol..Thanks for the help

[@khanrad]

The comment at 9:57 indicating that re-installation of the assy requires the motor to be at the as shipped wiper-center (aka wipers pointed up) position is important. And the helper's reaction to the prior incorrect comment was also eminently entertaining.

Great video! Thanks for sharing

Thanks for watching

[@martinparmer]

My issue is the intermittent wipers mostly don't work. The regular and fast speeds work just fine, sooooooo would it be the motor or transmission??? Thanks!

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

If may be an issue with the switch because the wiper switch controls the motor speeds. Hope this helps you out.

[@xbox360rook]

Thank you

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

No problem! Thanks for watching!

[@michaelmorris6575]

Good video! Very helpful. Thank you.

Excellent advice!!

[@brothercheerio]

How do you hold up the hood after you disconnect it?

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

I used a broom handle

[@brandonoliver0311]

Any advice on my issue at hand? I have an 03 Expedition. I replaced the wiper motor by removing the entire assembly as shown in the video, and reinstalled the transmission and motor. However the transmission isn't moving at all? I can hear the motor trying but seems like the transmission is seized almost. Could this have been because I didn't reset the transmission links before attaching the new motor and then putting it all back? Any help would be great, thank you.

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

Make the wiper transmission linkage isn't binding or coming into contact with something that may be preventing it from moving.

[@brandonoliver0311]

I figured it out today. The transmission links we oriented in the wrong direction. My driver side was getting jammed into the firewall which was preventing it from moving. After some tedious rotation of the motor to get the transmission set into the correct spot, I was able to get it reinstalled and operating successful. This video was certainly a big help for someone who isn't the most mechanically inclined.

[@blkmonday]

helpful but...you do not have to pin back the hood. just close it after you take the cowl plastic off. plenty of room to get it out and in. i took the motor off with it still in the cowl (i have small hands) but it can still come out with the motor and the hood closed. definitely takes a bit of wiggling it in and out. video def helped with the angles to remove. thanks!

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

Thanks for watching

[@Westboundandown]

Which way does the bottom arm need to be facing

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

We explain this in the video

[@3dmax911]

i did it to my navigator 2011 exactly but it did not stop at the park position it stop upright !! what did i have done wrong ??

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

Probably remove the wipers. Turn the wiper switch on and then shut the switch off, this should be in the parked position. Then reattach the wiper arms. Let me know if this worked.

[@manuelbenitez1980]

Greetings, can you give me the link to buy that Black protector that the computer has so that I don't get wet

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

You may want to check Ebay

[@randallalexander9209]

If after you take the cowl cover off just put the hood down then take the transmission out and put it back

[@jamesjet007]

Nice but you skipped over the hardest part. I cant get the freaking thing out

[@HomeOwnerRepair]

It's a pain, you have to worm it around and slide it out.
