[5th Gen : 08+]: 2010 front wiper motor replacement
Hello Dodge Forum,
I have a 2010 grand caravan and noticed this weekend that my front wiper blades are having some serious problems in going across the windshield. They are extremely slow, and struggling to make a complete rotation. I'm thinking the front wiper motor is shot or almost shot. I'm wondering if this is something that a weekend car tinkerer like myself might be able to take on, or if this is something best left to the pros? If this is something I can do, can anyone suggest where I can find some how-to's? I've looked online and haven't been able to find anything for the 2010.
Thanks in advance.

It's not that tough. Remove the wiper arms, held on by a nut under the cap at the pivot. Remove the cowl cover, torx screws I think. When you get the cowl cover off, the motor and linkage is right there. Mopar sells it with the linkage but you can get just the motor I think. Tough to line up just a motor, just a tapered spline shaft so easy to get it off and the wipers don't park correctly.
