• Q: How to service the front wiper motor on 2007 Toyota 4Runner?

  A: Service of the front wiper motor requires front wiper arm head cap removal through the use of a small screwdriver which must have tape on the tip. You must first stop the windshield wiper motor assembly at automatic when the wiper stops and then uninstall the nut and right-hand and left-hand wiper front arm. Both left and right front fender to cowl side seals must be taken out by unplugging the clips while detaching the claws. First, remove the cowl top ventilator louver subassembly through unclipping its items and breaking the clips and claws' meshing. Detach the connector before unscrewing two bolts to extract the windshield wiper motor with link while moving the wiper link assembly to the passenger seat and removing the rubber pin. To separate the windshield wiper motor assembly begin by using a screwdriver to unmesh the contact points connecting the rods at the clank arm pivot before removing its two bolts. The installation process starts by adding MP grease to the clank arm pivot followed by installing the windshield wiper motor assembly with two bolts secured at 7.5 N.m (76 kgf.cm, 66 in.lbf). The meshing between the rubber pin and windshield wiper link assembly needs two bolts which should be tightened to 7 N.m (71 kgf.cm, 62 in.lbf). Also reconnect the connector. Scrape the serration part of the left front wiper arm at its automatic position using a round file before brushing the wiper pivot serration with a wire brush. Then install the arm by tightening a nut to 25 N.m (255 kgf.cm, 18.4 ft.lbf) while maintaining arm hinge pressure. Repetition of the wiper arm scraping and maintenance steps applies to the right front wiper arm while monitoring proper wiping quality and rear wiper clearance during washer fluid wiper operation.
