Wiper issue on XJR
I recently picked up a 95 XJR that is having some wiper motor issues. The wiper functions correctly if it is in the raised position but when I put it on the windshield it makes terrible noises and no movement. I pulled the cover off the wiper motor and the large plastic gear is turning but not the center post. Has the gear broken or are these press fit together? How do I pull the gear out to inspect it?

Yes it does , to remove the bottom clips I took a heavy metal coat hanger and bent a hook to pull the clips , used another hanger to guide the first one in place from the other side . spray the clips first . It is a splined post and maybe the bolt backed off that pinches it together .

Hi All.
Just found another problem with the wipers, to go along with the slipping gear.
Low speed and intermittent functions to not work. The low speed sometimes moves very slowly and the intermittent does not move at all. When on low speed, and I put my hand on the motor, I cannot feel any movement in the motor. On high speed you can feel the motor rotating.
Is this a different problem than the gear slipping, perhaps caused by the switch or a relay?
Cheers
