Before you begin, open the bonnet. Start by disconnecting the connector of the motor, located near the water reservoir.

Next, remove the rear seal of the engine compartment, then take off the plastic cover. At this point, remove the two wipers, followed by the main plastic cover above the motor.

This will give you access to the wiper motor. Proceed to unscrew all the bolts securing it. Once the bolts are removed, you can take out the motor, completing the disassembly.

To install the new wiper motor and close everything up, simply follow these instructions in reverse, and you will have completed the replacement.
