windshield wiper motor replacement
I need (want) to replace the wiper motors in my 1999 rexhall rex aire. Haven't had much luck, so I'm here looking for help from the folks that own motorhomes. Thanks for the help I know I'll receive.

- Take it out and go to a good NAPA TRUCK center. Not your local NAPA store but a NAPA with a dedicated truck center.
Because you have what is this as your location I cannot direct you to the nearest NAPA truck place - Windsheild wipers are fairly simple systems. The steering arm off/on variable speed switch, A control box and the motor. I had trouble with mine and found that it was a loose 5 pin controller that connected the motor. I was able to get the ford test repair document for the wiper system and it was set up to id the defective component. What leads you to believe its the motor and not controller or column switch. Do a goggle search for F 53, f 550, f350 wiper problems and it should lead you to the test procedure. There was a portion of it free on line but I brought the pro direct from ford for the rv chassis

I presume your "luck" involves the ability to find the exact replacement wiper motor? I replaced my wiper motor on a previous coach, and I went through the manufacturer of the conversion of my chassis. After receiving the part, I cross referenced the part and found it to be a part manufactured by the chassis builder. The part was actually less expensive had I went to the chassis manufacturer. By the way, the conversion was Newmar, and the chassis was Ford.
