    Default Rear wiper motor change

    So, needed to change my rear wiper motor as it was all over the place, got a second hand unit from eBay for £25 so jobs a goodun...

    But... Tonight after work changed them over, ok easy job, till I get to taking the old arm off the spline/shaft. Jeeeeeeeesus it was on solid! Took me and a mate best part of 40mins to get off! WD40, screw drivers etc, finally used some pipe grips and brute force! Was only when I slipped with the grips it must have shocked it enough it just popped off!

    So swapped over, AND fixed my heated screen as the negative spade connector was loose, so crimped a new one in

    Simple things, but well chuffed!!

    A what?? I was designing things in my head as I smacked it with my ratchet (grievous tool harm I know), like using a chain splitter kinda thing.
