Port Windshield Wiper (motor) broken - Not2SHABI - 07-20-2018

Hello All,
Just checking in with the Tiara Community if anyone has any advice or experience with access to fix/replace the PORT windshield wiper motor/assembly.  I have been trying to figure out how to access this motor for some time.  We have a 2011 4500 Sovran that we bough last year.  This motor appears to be behind the Galley cabinets above the stove top OR possible access from the FWD Head shower unit.  In the shower I thought I could disassemble the deck hatch/window and gain access between the deck and the fiberglass shower liner.  I really don't want to take apart the galley cabinets, and am not interested in cutting a hole in the shower liner.  Any thoughts or suggestions?  Thanks

Hi,

Did you email customer service at the factory? They should be able to tell you the trick to change out the motor. On my 05 Sovran, you have to take the headliner down which is no easy task.

Hey Tiara 44,
Yep, told that had to disassemble the galley cabinet! Definitely DO NOT want to do that!! so frustrated with the lack of access on this thing!
