removing wiper motor from spitfire mk3

[phillip ridley]

hello can anyone tell me how to remove the wiper motor from a spitfire mk3 ( separate from the wiper drive if that's what you call it ) thanks phill

The motor attaches to a bracket that affixes to the top of bulkhead
The motor has small mounting bolts with rubber vibration pads
Then the motor is attached to the worm by a large nut
The nut is undone along with the four small bolts that hold the top plate and round self returning dish
Take off both plate and dish and the worm is attached to the actuator wheel (with cogs)
There is a retaining plate that holds the worm eye in place
Lift that and the worm comes free ,as well as the worm that is held into the motor body
After removing 7/16"af bolts from bulkhead ,the whole thing lifts into your hands

PS Your post is in the wrong place

Thanks for your help I'm new to this and just trying to find my way round it will get there eventually haha thanks

The plate position controls the park position of the wipers, so best mark the position of the plate in relation to the body with something that can later be removed, prior to loosening.
I'm assuming this is the case with your setup.
