    Hi, so I’m having a weird issue.

    The original rear wiper motor got water inside, so it was ruined because of it. For that reason, I bought a different second hand motor which inside looked pretty good, but I still cleaned it, greased it and sent it.

    Now, the issue is that it only works when you move it manually and even then, it just returns to the original position and that’s it. So I can confirm the motor does work and it does get power.

    I checked the fuse and the relay, both seemed fine.

    What else am I missing? Why is the motor not working properly?

    Fit a new motor, if you took it apart and greased it, you probaly got grease on the current tracks.
