Did you get a new motor or a used motor? Wipers on a dry windshield will often drag and operate slow, but they shouldn't on a wet windshield. Don't bother with the fuse - it's either good or it's not and if it's not, the wipers won't work at all.  Signature-Mike- mmarlowREMOVE@alltel.net Thanks mike, it is used. May be is broken. i cant think of anything else except some kind of short cirtcuit. > > a few months ago my wiper blades started to move slow. i went and got a > > wiper motor on ebay for my 2002 accent, i put it in today and it is [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > bother with the fuse - it's either good or it's not and if it's not, the > wipers won't work at all. It's possible the linkage is binding, or I suppose it's also possible that your alternator isn't working properly, causing your system voltage to be low. > a few months ago my wiper blades started to move slow. i went and got a > wiper motor on ebay for my 2002 accent, i put it in today and it is > slow again? any ideas what could fix this problem? new wipers? new > fuse? > thanks. Have you checked the bearings where the wiper arms attach. If either or both is dry (not uncommon), they will slow down the wiper action. Work some oil into them (real oil, not WD-40 or another light spray lube) and you should see a big improvement. I have had this happen a few times myself. Just lubricate the arms where they bolt with the car and everything will be fine. I do mine once a month so that it wont happen again Mary >a few months ago my wiper blades started to move slow. i went and got a > wiper motor on ebay for my 2002 accent, i put it in today and it is > slow again? any ideas what could fix this problem? new wipers? new > fuse? > thanks. I took it a part today and the linkage is very rusty. i cant hardly move the right wiper, i guess i should get new linkage. thanks. > I have had this happen a few times myself.

That would be the best thing to do, but as as an expedient, you can work some oil into the bearing to free it up. That will keep you going until you get your new parts. >> I have had this happen a few times myself. Just lubricate the arms where >> they bolt with the car and everything will be fine.
