LeSabre V6-181 30L (1986) Wiper Motor - Basic Description
Fig. 5 Compound wound round winshield wiper motor w/multiplex pulse system
Description:
The 4 or 4 1/2 inch long, round motor assembly consists of an armature, field coil and end cap assembly, and a brush plate which fits over the armature
and is connected to the field coils. The motor assembly is attached to a gear box housing which also provides a mount for the washer pump. A worm gear
on the armature commutator end drives the output shaft at a 90° angle through a drive gear and pawl assembly.
The gear box assembly contains a magnet switch, relay and terminal board assembly (gear box relay) which provides electrical connections and controls
current flow through the motor. On standard (non-pulse) motors, Fig. 3, the two motor leads to the gear box relay are concealed and routed through a
cavity in the gear housing. On pulse type motors, Figs. 4 and 5, the two motor leads to the gear box relay, and the feed wire to the pulse relay are
exposed. Both standard and pulse motors used on Corvette have an additional ground lead to ground the motor housing to the wiper switch.
