Gt6 mk1 wiper motor

[gt6878e]

Hi all,
Has anyone done any modifications to their wiper motor? Mine went kapput...(managed to get it going from parts off a spare morris minor one i had) But has anyone managed to fit anything else in to do the job?

Thanks

Darren

You can fit the later type round wiper motor if your not fussed about originality.

Dave at Canley Classics should be able to supply a recon (exchange) moter, be warned they're not cheap as they fit a TR5!  ??)

Oh TR tax - IIRC the last ones I saw were about £150

Herald version will work, a lot cheaper to buy especially from eBay but while it looks the same you'll only have one speed. A little bit of jiggery-pokery with the wiring connections and it'll perform as the original. In fact, I never use the second higher speed on my Mk1 at all...

I've got a morris minor one on it at the mo so one speed doesn't matter, as long as it wipes i'll be happy

When I got my car, the wiper motor was kaput.  Wanting to maintain the look of originality I had a shop in Canada rebuild the interior bits of the motor.  I get one speed, but that has been all I ever needed.

Could be an option.
