rear windshield wiper motor
 

does anyone have anyidea of why this wouldnt be working? nothing on it works not the wiper itself and not the wiper fluid deal.

btw its on my 87 4runner

Is it getting juice? Relay/Fuse maybe? I don't know if its on the same power as the front wipers or fluid pump or not.

the front ones work if that means ne thing

Two possible reasons I can think of, (1) Check the connection under the moulding to the left of the tailgate, it is the same one you would have to dissconnect if you were to remove the "canopy". It might have wiggled loose.
(2) One of the bolts on the driver side that holds down the "canopy" is also holding down a switch that disables the power window and the rear wiper assembly, when removed. If that switch is bad, or you have the wrong size bolt in there, you will get the same problem.
Good luck!! :)

hey i think ur number 2 reason is correct! cuz i knew about the one near the tailgate and checked that one, but i never knew about the other one.

i removed the top not to long ago and put it back on the other day and didnt put all the bolts in so i bet ur right there
thanks!

incase u were wondering the only reason i wanted this to work is cuz theres so many stupid tailgaters here and it drives me crazy, so i just wanted to be able to move the wiper fluid sprayer thing so i could spray the tailgaters :saw:

LOL! What a great idea! That will teach those Tailgating scum....Keep us posted on how that works, I just might have to try that. :D

will do, if the tailgaters pass me, the ones up front are turned around also
