Inspect the inside of the electrical connector on the wiper motor for moisture or water. If no moisture or water is found, continue inspecting for
evidence or signs that moisture or water was present at some earlier time. Indicators include water stains, dried dirt, etc. (1).
^
If moisture or water is found in the electrical connector, or if there is evidence that there was moisture or water present at an earlier time, the
complete wiper motor module (including the motor) MUST be replaced. Obtain a new wiper module and proceed to Step 20. The new wiper
modules already have a different style of breathable seal on the wiper cover. DO NOT install the breathable seal described later in this recall
on new wiper modules.
^
If there is no moisture or water found in electrical connector, or if there is NO evidence that moisture or water was present at an earlier time, a
breathable seal must be installed over the vent in the wiper motor cover. Proceed to the next step.
17.
Clean the exterior surface of the wiper motor cover thoroughly (1). It must be free of dirt, grease, oil, and other contamination.
Important
To ensure good adhesion of the seal being installed in the next steps, make sure that your hands are clean and free of oil and grease before
proceeding.
18.
Using the alcohol wipe included in the kit, wipe the complete exterior surface of the wiper cover thoroughly. Allow the surface to dry
approximately 30-45 seconds before proceeding.
Important
When using the adhesion promoter in the next step:
^
DO NOT open the adhesion promoter until you are ready to apply it.
^
Use the complete contents of the packet as soon as it is opened.
^
If the packet is dried-out when opened, obtain another sealer kit or use P/N 12378462 (4 oz. can of adhesion promoter).
^
Do not allow the liquid to "spill" inside of the vent opening on the wiper motor cover when applying.
^
Allow to dry 30-90 seconds before applying the seal.
19.
Carefully apply the adhesion promoter that is included in the kit.
Important
The seal must be inspected before installing. If there are any creases in the seal or backing material, the seal must NOT be used. Obtain another
sealer kit.
^
If you are unable to remove the backing material from the seal in the next step, the seal is beyond its shelf life of one year. Obtain another
sealer kit. Do NOT touch the adhesive surface on the seal when removing the backing material.
