Audi A3 8P 2003-2012 Rear Windscreen Wiper Motor 8E9955711E

How Does the Audi A3 Windscreen Wiper Motor Work?

Are your wipers slower than usual, or can you hear a whirring sound coming from the wiper motor?

Snow, rain, dust, and other debris hit your windscreen daily and can obstruct visibility. This is where your wipers and wiper motor come into play. Without a functioning wiper motor, the wiper blades cannot operate. Driving without working windscreen wipers is against the law.

The electric motor is connected to the vehicle’s power supply and operates the wiper system. To move the wiper arms across the windscreen, a worm gear mechanism is commonly used.

For the wiper blades to move smoothly, the wiper motor rotates in a continuous clockwise motion. Each windscreen wiper requires its own motor to function correctly.

In most modern vehicles, windscreen wipers operate in a parallel movement, although some manufacturers design systems where the wipers move in opposite directions.

The wiper motor is mounted to the header panel located above the windscreen within the vehicle.
