Hi, I wonder whether anyone can help with this..

I need new linkages for my wiper motor as the bearings (on what was a replacement part) are worn out.  I can't see that just the linkages can be found anywhere on eBay without the motor, so presume I will need to get another full kit.

But the question is whether what Trico describe as a "2R83-17500-BA" is the same as a "1R83-17500-BA" (or "1R83-17500-BC" or "2R83-17500-BB etc.)?!

 

I'm assuming when you say "bearing" you actually mean the plastic bushes in the linkage?

If so, try this :

I bought a similar kit for my Honda CR-V some 2-3 years ago and it's working as well now as it did when i fitted it after a similar game to yours of replacing the entire linkage and motor assembly only to find it came from a Japanese (instead of Swindon like mine) built CR-V so had some wiring problems.

Glad you mentioned this as mine is starting to wear on my '99 S Type so i had to search for the part you need and the part i need! With absolutely no sarcasm intended, thanks for having this problem! It's what the forum is all about - one person has a problem without an immediate solution but someone, somewhere has and has the easy solution.
