Hi you are better off replacing the entire unit not to difficult, not to expensive, but make sure you buy a new rubber grommet as that deteriorates with age and give it a liberal coating of silicone grease when refitting grommet they tend to last longer, thats probably where your leak is.

Sounds a lot easier to be honest, I will do that then. Thanks for the advice 🙏🏻 👍🏻

Hi, I have a similar problem with my wiper but the motor is still working by the sounds of it but the spindle isn't moving? Do you think it would easier to just replace the motor altogether if this case or attempt to disassemble and see if there is anything noticeably wrong that could be fixed? I knew the wiper arm needed replacing as the bottom where the bolt attaches to the spindle had snapped but my mechanic manage to temp fix. But now I have removed the arm and thought to see if the spindle moved and I can just hear the motor and the spindle stays still? I wonder if I had the same issue in regards to the leak as a while back I was having an issue where my car alarm would randomly go off constantly at the most inconvenient of times and when I read some forums they said that rain could leak through the boot seals where the lock mechanism is and causing a short or something of that sort? Any help would be massively appreciated 🙏🏻 👍🏻

Ye I think your right. I wasn't too sure of the price but after looking I can probably pick one up for £30 and its not a difficult fit so rather than mess about its probably easier to just go ahead and replace. Thanks for the advice 🙂👍🏻
