This motor does exactly what it sounds like – it powers your windshield wipers. It takes electrical energy from your car’s system and turns it into the mechanical motion that swings the wiper arms back and forth. More modern ones can vary speed, some even have a ‘smart wipe’ feature that adjusts based on rain sensor input. Essentially it's responsible for clearing rain, snow, and grime from your windshield. It's part of the whole wiper system, naturally. The system includes the wiper arms, the linkage, and the switch you use inside the car. The motor is really the heart of it all. It receives the signal from that switch and makes everything move. It’s usually tucked away somewhere near the base of the windshield, under the cowl panel. Visibility, plain and simple. You’ll notice if this thing goes bad because your wipers will either stop working completely, or they’ll move really slowly and jerkily. Driving in bad weather with malfunctioning wipers is… well, it's dangerous. It’s one of those things that, when it’s working, you don’t think twice about it. When it fails, it’s a big deal. You can find a replacement pretty easily, places like Fixparts Online often have them in stock. It’s generally a straightforward repair, but can be a little fiddly getting to it depending on the vehicle. Year-round reliability: Motor (MPN 2K0955712F) includes a 12-month warranty!
