2008 Toyota Avalon Wiper Motor Parts Q&A

• Q: How to install the windshield wiper motor and wiper arm assemblies on 2008 Toyota Avalon?

  A: The installation process begins by using 3 torque-tightened bolts for the windshield wiper link assembly to 7.5 Nm (76 kgf-cm, 66 in-lbf) before attaching the rod to the wiper link assembly. After installing the 4 bolts on the windshield wiper motor and link assembly use a torque of 7.0 Nm (71 kgf-cm, 62 in-lbf), then install the connector. The right-hand windshield wiper arm and blade assembly requires wiper operation until the motor stops automatically. A wire brush must be used to clean the wiper arm and pivot serrations before reinstallation. Secure the right-hand wiper arm and blade assembly with a nut in its designated spot and torque it to 20 Nm (209 kgf-cm, 15 ft-lbf) while gripping the arm hinge by hand for improved fastening of the nut. Utilize a 20 Nm (209 kgf-cm, 15 ft-lbf) torque to fasten the indicated left-hand wiper arm and blade assembly nut after securing it with your hand while gripping the arm hinge. This procedure must be followed after cleaning the left-hand wiper arm and pivot serrations.
