Lude Generation

I hope this is the right section.

I have a 1998 Honda Prelude 2l manual gear box.

My Window wiper does not work when you push it down nor does it work on the fastest setting.

Any one else came across a similar problem?

do you hear the window motor going or just dead?

'Mist' (when you pull it down) is fast speed wipe, so your two faults are likely to be the same problem.

Looking at the wiring diagram, everything returns out of the switch to the same single ground, so it can only be something in the motor itself or between the wiper and the switch, or the switch.

Could be the fast coils are burnt out in the motor but that's unlikely. Most likely either dodgy connection at the motor, or a switch fault I reckon.

Suggest you pull the connector off the motor and check the contacts are clean/tight as the first step.

Thanks for the info.

I have a fella arranged to give it a bit of a service for me tomorrow will get him to have a look at it for me.

No problem.

The original Honda service manuals can be found via the Wiki-Lude link in the top menu bar, btw. Free downloads.

Still trying to get this sorted.

Swopped out the switch tonight and no joy checked all the cvables and no joy.

New motor?

Eventually got this sorted last night after replacing the motor.

Glad it's sorted. Fast coils burnt out in the motor then - very unusual.
