How to Keep Your Wipers Efficient

Model: Fiat Panda MK 1, 141 - Years 1980-2003
Part: Windshield wipers

The video shows how to repair the damaged gear that allows the windscreen wiper to function correctly. This is a very detailed video, so follow each step carefully to restore the proper operation of the wiper.
The repair is creatively done by replacing the gear with a hex-headed bolt, which is quite complex, so it may be more cost-effective to replace it with a completely new part.

The guide uses a Fiat Panda 4x4 Sisley as an example, but it is applicable to all Panda models.
