Port Wiper Motor on my 98 450DA. How do I access it?

I have no idea how to fix your windshield wiper motor. Would you be able to tell me where the Aft vacu flush vacuum generator is located?

Starb side, Between the engine and side of the boat, towards stern. Real pain to get to. Easier to disconnect hoses, pull it out, rebuild and put back in.

Remove the cover off the fluoro light in the galley.
On the ceiling behind the tubes is a cover held in place by 4 screws, remove this to access motor. Good luck.
This is on my to do list as I have already replaced the starboard setup with a Speich wiper arrangement which is great as it includes an intermittent function (3 stage)

Thank you very much. It must be next to the hot water heater. I will take a look when I get to the boat this weekend.

There will be ceiling light of some description affording access to wiper motor...unless they have built the vessel around the wiper motor....!!!
