UPDATE: Don't bother using the bushing in this video. It DOES NOT work. The first time it rained and used the wipers is came apart again. I am making a follow up video for a better fix.

My wife came home and said her wipers on her car stopped working. I found the wipers almost hanging off the car. haha I thought at first the wiper motor was shot but found a plastic bushing was bad on one of the metal arms that hooks to the wiper motor.

Thanks for the video! I almost looked like a pro when I replaced the bushing on my Equinox. My replacement lasted a few months at least. I ordered a metal windshield wiper linkage clip that I hope lasts longer. Hoping to install it tonight.

I actually had an issue with the motor where the bolt on the underside of the motor wouldn’t stay tight no matter what we did, but your video taught me how to access the parts I needed! Thank you from a first time lady mechanic 👩‍🔧 lmfao!!!

I recently replaced mine. Got a good deal from Partsgeek. Wife found it for me and it came with a 2 year warranty.

Thanks for posting instructions on how to do this. I ended up replacing the entire assembly and keeping the original motor. Cost me $130 for the new assembly and just over two hours time. Much better than an all day trip to the repair shop.

Thanks for the great video and update. I saved a bunch of money fixing my wife’s rig with the help of your video and our local junkyard. Silly me thought the equinox could handle a little ice. Guess I was wrong.

Thank you very much for sharing! Yes, I can hear the motor working normally and I can move the wipers by hand with some small resistance. The solution you present will most likely work. I'll probably reconnect and see how it goes. Thanks again! Yes Quincy Stallworth. I suspect it would cost $300.

Thank you! I was really worried that I needed to buy a new motor. You would think they would build a upgraded replacement...

@Upper Peninsula. Thank you for posting this video. We ended up going with Dorman 49452 wiper linkage bushings. The package says GM/Nissan. We got a package of 5 from Autozone for $8.99. So far so good.

I drilled a small hole through the side of both the bushing and the ball it sits on.....the arm will not pop off anymore. All it cost me was pennies for a cotter pin.
