Its not quite as dark as it looks, no I'd better re-phrase that. It is as
dark as it looks! but the page actually has some text on it, being black
however means its not visible. What it actually says is;

John
I bought a motor that motors away fine, but the cap where the switch normally
fits is plain i.e. no switch. What I would need is a new cap with a switch
and wire to the terminal block. The cap I am referring to is about 2-3" in
diameter with 3-4 screws holding it on over the gear mechanism.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a wiper motor rebuild?

I found a company in the UK ( J&L Spares Export Ltd,Lancashire), has anyone
used them?

Satisfied?
