• Q: How to remove the front wiper motor on 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser?

  A: The first step to remove the front wiper motor involves disconnecting the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Start by removing the upper radiator support seal followed by unclipping three fasteners of the left-hand side front fender main seal using a clip remover tool. Execute the identical process on the right-hand side. First remove the left front wiper nut and blade then wiper arm before you do the same on the right front wiper arm. You must detach 12 clips and 4 clamps to remove the hood to cowl top seal. The cowl top ventilator louver sub-assembly can be detached after you take off the washer hose followed by the 2 clips and the final removal of the 17 claws. As the next step disconnect the connector then unfasten the clamp and take out the wire harness from the cowl top panel. Slide the motor and link by removing three bolts before disconnecting them according to the provided illustration. Detaching the clamp and removing the wiper motor cover constitutes the next step for the windshield wiper motor assembly. A screwdriver equipped with protective tape should be used to disconnect the windshield wiper link assembly rod from the crank arm pivot of the windshield wiper motor assembly. Water pump pliers with protective boot will gently remove the wiper arm from the crank arm pivot without breaking it. The removal of both wiper motor screws requires a T30 "TORX" socket according to the repair instructions.
