Today we will see the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the windshield wiper motor of the Volkswagen Golf. First, we open the hood of the car and start removing the plastic partition found at the top; then we unscrew the screws of the windshield wiper mechanism found at the top right, in order to remove it with the motor (also disconnecting the electrical wiring), as shown in the video.

At this point, we replace the windshield wiper motor with the new one, as well as with the original one; we reassemble everything, following the reverse process!
