I have encountered a problem with the wiper circuit in the electric interface module. First the motor was pretty well roasted, probably at locked rotor too long. Second, there is no voltage or even relay clicking at the module under the dash. The unused water pmp circuit is available but I will need to add a pin connection to the wiring harness plug to access that relay, or just jumper an internal connection for fused power to the wiper motor. Comments?? See latest fix at 6-6-14.:smt100

Follow up to replacing a right angle drive wiper motor. The replacement motor has not arrived for my '00 210BR, but in the mean time I took the wiper motor apart including the drive mechanism, and wallah! Under the flate plate
Saga has concluded with wiper motor change out. There are two parts to this saga, actually three if you consider the installation. The replacement motor was a right angle 1 1/2" shaft, 4 wire...two speed, park and gnd. The internal transmission plate allowed for left and right park, and several angles of wiper sweep. First you have to remove the external rectangular cover to expose the connecting arm and transmission plate. There are brass screws holding the transmission plate to the nylon gear driven by the motor. I couldn't budge either one. Returned to the Schmitt Ongaro supplier to make the left park setting and the wiper sweep i thought i needed. Next time I would use a light touch of a soldering iron to warm the screws since they were embedded in the nylon gear. Thats done. Next i bought a 4"x4" Lexan box w/cover from Amazon and a Blue Sea switch plate and three SPDT, center off switches from CLR Marine. Ignored the wiper switch at the console, and taped back the original supply to the motor since it was both a dead connection and could not meet the requirements of the new motor. Jumpered a hot lead off the electronic control module to the the fuse in the box with the hot connect on to the center of the first switch, one output to the center of the second switch for speed control and the other to the lead for "PARK." Before all that I had to mount the motor through the existing hole in front of the windshield. Barely had enough length in the short shaft to secure the outer nut. They make a 2 1/2" shaft. But I succeded. On the far end of the motor is a bracket I had to drill through to match up a screw hole to the deck before the windshield. Used a SS screw through the fiberglass deck to secure the bracket underneath. The connections from the switch box to the motor leads were made with 18 awg stranded tinned wire, through spaded connectors. Works perfect and will probably never see much use
