Hi guys

The word on the street is that wiper motors for corsa c
are on back order, they have on back order 800 at the presant time

Theses are made in china and are approx ?100+vat

Normally the linkage seizes which pops the fuse, or frys the motor

best thing you can do is when old people come in, them that it is fu*ked, sell them a new one, keep the old one, keep at it in a vise with heat and thin oil, buff it, oil and grease it, use on your own vechile

*THIS IMFORMATION IS IN CONFIDENCE NOT TO BE SHARED - APPARANTLY*

Another hint is astra G motor usually just needs a contact soldered on when they dont park, drill rivets and open up youll see what I mean!
