How to Replace the Wiper Motor on a RAM 1500?

Model: RAM 1500 DM, D1, DH, DC, MK 3, DR - Years 2002-2009
Part: Windshield wipers

To replace the wiper motor on a RAM 1500, open the hood to access the two side screws securing the grille at the base of the windshield. After removing the fastening rivets, you can detach the grille and access the motor underneath. The motor must be freed from its housing by unscrewing the mounting screws and those connecting it to the wiper arms. Then disconnect the power connectors and connect them to the new motor, which must be secured again with screws. After installation, reinsert the grille and wiper arms.
