🧼 Cardone 85-299 High-Performance Wiper Motor Review

This was a 100% perfect solution for my 1991 F150. There is a video of the exchange on youtube. Pretty easy if you watch the video. I have uploaded a short video of the new block in operation.

Anything from Cardone seems pretty cheap to me. All of their remanufactured products are painted black which is fine but makes them less premium in my opinion. The engine runs well but doesn't look too impressive.

Installed on my F250 '94 in Dec '16. Mainly agricultural truck, 5000 miles since install. The block failed on March 18. I live in the desert so the wipers don't get used all the time. Not very happy with its short lifespan. The motor runs but the noise is like the internal gears are broken.

So if the connector is a little loose, it may not be making good contact. I checked the electrical connections prior to installation to verify the alignment of the actual connections and found this. When I tested the new motor before installing…

This engine was originally purchased from Revain. It was packaged well and it's a new engine, not a refurbished one, which is a great deal. The quality of the motor is very good and it installs/works great. It's a reliable engine that makes little noise. It was installed on an early 1992 Ford F250 so a little info for anyone installing for this application from the same years: You will need to remove the bonnet cover and wiper arms to install the engine correctly. This is because it allows…
