What is the Wiper Gearbox all about?

Your windshield wipers remove water, snow and other impediments, allowing you to see the road ahead clearly. Windshield wiper systems require linkages and a gearbox to drive them at the preset rate (intermittent, low, high, etc.). It is generally located at the base of the windshield, under the hood and the cowling. The gearbox is directly connected to the wiper arm linkage that causes the windshield wiper pivots to turn and wipe the window. The gears inside the gearbox are subject to wear, though the usual failure is due to operation with excess weight on the wiper arms such as snow. This causes the internal gears to bind, bend or strip.

Keep in mind:

  • Once a gearbox sees significant wear, wipers will not function optimally and eventually stop working altogether.
  • Replacing the wiper blades is a good idea anytime a wiper system component needs repair.

How it's done:

  • The wiper arms are removed from the wiper gear box
  • The cowl is removed to access the wiper gear box
  • The defective wiper gear box is removed and the new one installed
  • The cowl is reinstalled and the wiper arms are installed onto the gear box
  • The wipers are tested to work in all positions

Our recommendation:

The wiper gearbox is a sealed system and cannot be serviced in most instances. When it malfunctions or show signs of failure, replacement is necessary. Have one of our expert mechanics look at it to ensure a smooth replacement and to professionally inspect wiper arm linkages and other system components.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Wiper Gearbox?

  • Windshield wipers operate intermittently or not at all
  • Wiper speed is inaccurate or inconsistent

How important is this service?

Because your windshield wipers are responsible for ensuring a clear view of the road during inclement weather, it’s important to have the wiper gearbox replaced when wear and tear begins to take a toll. We recommend having the problem first diagnosed by one of our expert mechanics, who will determine if the issue is the switch, the gearbox, or the relay, and inspect the rest of the wiper system (including linkages and wiper arms).

I have a 2011 GMC Terrain, it burns oil. Last week it was running rough, idoling rough, and wanting to die when I would let it idol too long without giving it any gas, and after driving it to work the check [engine](/topics-engine-chevy/) light came on. I read a lot of things on the subject online and everyone recommended NO SMOKE STOP LEAK, I went to autozone and got the codes checked, it said it was a random misfire, I added two quarts of oil and a little bit of the no smoke and it ran perfectly, it was like new. That was last Tuesday. Today it was running kind of weird on the way to work, when it was in first gear and I would give it gas, it would bog down and drop RPM and i would release the gas and then it would drive into second gear and work its way up and would run fine after the first gear transfer. I get to work and it dies when I pull into my parking spot before I can put it into park. I turn it back on and the check engine light is flashing and the stabilitrak light is flashing and its shaking violently. I shut it off and check the oil, there is no oil on the dipstick, I add two quarts because thats all I had on me, and i add another thick drop of the no smoke stop leak into the oil, and turn it back on and its still flashing check engine light and service stabilitrak and its very shaky still. I took it to a mechanic down the street from where I work but have not heard anything back from then yet. What are your thoughts?
