• Q: How to remove the front wiper motor on 2008 Scion xD?

  A: Begin the wiper motor removal process with front wiper arm head cap removal by using a taped screwdriver to separate the 2 claws during which you can detach the 2 front wiper arm caps. The next step is to position the wiper motor automatically to the stop point and remove the nut followed by the front wiper arm and blade assembly LH. The removal of the front wiper arm and blade assembly RH follows precisely the same procedure which was used for the LH side. The seventh clips should be released and hood to cowl top seal needs to be extracted. The next operation involves disassembly of the cowl top ventilator louver LH and RH by first removing the clip followed by disengaging the 4 claws and 4 guides until the components can be removed. The process requires the removal of two bolts while you slide the front wiper motor and link and proceed with disconnection of the connector and detachment of the rubber pin from the link before extracting the motor and link. You must disconnect the wiper link assembly rod by using a screwdriver with tape protection on the tip to access the pivot of the front wiper motor crank arm. After matchmarking crank arm and front wiper motor components you can remove the nut followed by the crank arm and then remove the 3 bolts to disconnect the front wiper motor.
