Replacing the windshield wiper motor and trapezoid
The design of the windshield wiper on the VAZ 2110 is quite reliable and during normal operation the motor and the trapezoid itself can easily move all 300,000 km, which has been proven by the personal experience of many owners.
But there are also exceptions to the rules. It often happens that the splines are bypassed or the trapezoid structure simply breaks down. If you have such problems, the repair procedure will be discussed below.
To replace all the wiper parts, we will need the following tool:
- flat and Phillips screwdriver;
- 10 mm socket head;
- ratchet handle;
To do this job, you first need to do some preparatory steps, namely:
- Remove the windshield trim (jabot).
- Remove the insulation and seal under the hood.
- Disconnect one end of the expansion tank rubber and move it to the side.
Good technical characteristics of the gearmotor
Rotation speed of the gear motor shaft at a supply voltage of 14 V, load torque of 1.47 N•m (0.15 kgf•m) and ambient temperature (25±10) °C, min –1
- first (small): 30–40
- second (large): 55–70
The current consumption at the above load should be no more than:
- at first speed - 3.5 A
- at second speed – 5 A
The device has found its application not only in passenger cars, but also in all other types of vehicles. Even large submarines, helicopters and airplanes are equipped with windshield wipers, which perform an irreplaceable role and at the same time have a very simple operating principle. When the wipers operate, excess water, dirt and other foreign objects on the windshield begin to be removed.
Car models have several operating modes: with a given period of time; constant; single. The auxiliary mechanism supplies water to remove large amounts of dust or dirt from the windshield.
Photo report on the removal and installation of the windshield wiper trapezoid on a VAZ 2110-2112
When all the preparatory steps are done, everything will look something like this. The arrows at the top show the attachment points of the two nuts:
You need to unscrew them, of course.
After this, we disconnect the clamp securing the expansion tank and, lifting it up a little, move it to the side to gain access to the third trapezoid mounting nut.
After this, the nut can be unscrewed; it is located at the very bottom:
After you have dealt with this, you can carefully turn the trapezoid and remove it from the left side, slightly bending the metal frame below the windshield to the side (the force required is very small - there is no point in talking about any real bending!)
And lift it almost all the way to take it out:
All that remains is to disconnect the power plug:
And now you can finally remove the entire structure of the trapezoid and the wiper motor from the bore. If you need to disconnect and replace one motor, then in principle there will be no difficulties with this - just unscrew it and replace it.
Installation of all removed parts occurs in the reverse order. It is worth mentioning the prices of these spare parts. The cost of a trapezoid assembly with an engine for a VAZ 2110 is about 2000-3000 rubles from the manufacturer AvtoVAZ. Chinese analogues cost about 2000 rubles.

Review
Many dozens of car owners agree that the windshield wiper motor of the VAZ 2110 is quite frail - both in old and new modifications. Moreover, its operation depends on many parameters: the condition of the wiper rubber bands, wind, the amount of water pouring onto the glass, the voltage supplied to the wiper motor. Usually there are more complaints about the front window wiper, but the rear window on models 2111 and 2112 also has exactly the same gear motor.
Windshield wiper motor VAZ 2110
Causes of malfunction
The weak point of this motor is that there are a fairly large number of contacts along the power circuit. This affects both the voltage and the possible causes of malfunctions: the contact on one link of the chain is lost or unstable, and stable operation of the windshield wiper is no longer possible. In this case, it is quite possible that the motor is not at fault. Therefore, before you decide that it needs to be replaced, check the contacts along the entire circuit.
- Fuse. Pay attention to the fuse, it may also be faulty;
- Performance. Next, you should check the switch itself for serviceability;
- Operating parameters. Using an ohmmeter, check the resistance in the circuit breaker between the terminals. If it shows “zero”, you need to change the breaker;
- Correct connection. Without turning on the wiper, measure the resistance between the fourth terminal and ground. It must also be zero. Otherwise, you need to properly restore the grounding;
- Voltage. Turn the windshield wiper to low speed and check the voltage at terminal five. It is equal to the battery voltage, but the gearmotor does not work? It needs to be changed.

Replacement procedure
So, you have chosen a gear motor for your VAZ - one of the first three. Let's look at how it is replaced. When performing this work, there is no need to disassemble the entire windshield wiper system. We proceed like this:
- Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery;
- Having noted the position of the brushes on the windshield, unscrew and remove the levers;
- Remove the cover from the fairing;
- Unscrew the nut securing the crank mechanism bracket to the motor axis;
- Unscrew and remove the bracket itself. It is secured to the body with 3 bolts;
- We remove the non-working or poorly functioning motor from the studs;
- Replacing the old one with a new one is done in the reverse way.
The process of replacing the windshield wiper motor on a VAZ 2110
The procedure for performing work to replace the motor with an imported analogue (from a Volkswagen):
1. It is necessary to disconnect the negative terminal from the battery. 2. Dismantling the windshield wiper (unscrew the nut of the arm and remove it). 3. Unscrew the three gearbox bolts and remove it from the bracket (after marking the position of the brushes on the windshield with a wax pencil). 4. It is necessary to disconnect the electrical connector of the motor (loosen the mounting bolts and remove the motor assembly with rods). 5. Remove it from the space under the fairing. 6. Disconnect the motor from the assembly rods (it is necessary to loosen the 3 mounting screws). 7. To connect a new motor, you will have to redo the connection chip itself (there is nothing complicated, and it costs a penny). 8. On the VAZ 2110 trapezoids, the hole for the gear motor shaft is slightly larger than the required diameter, so the lever will have to be replaced. It is necessary to supply a new sample, it fits perfectly. An important point when installing a new gearmotor on a trapezoid is that you do not need to place an engraver under the bolts. Otherwise, the “crank” will catch the bolts. 9. When replacing the windshield wiper motor of a VAZ 2110, it is advisable to use new wires to avoid accidental short circuits. As a last resort, if you use twists, be sure to properly insulate all connections from moisture.
Assembly is carried out in reverse order. After assembly, a test drive of the innovation is required. The result is obvious; replacing the windshield wiper motor on the VAZ 2110 speeded up the work of the wipers significantly, even on dry glass.

The rear electric motor can also be removed and a new one installed. To do this you need:
- Remove the holder and rear wiper blade;
- Remove the rear door from the upholstery;
- Remove the battery negative terminal wire;
- Disconnect the terminal block from the windshield wiper motor wiring;
- Loosen the nuts securing it to the door (there are 3 of them) and dismantle the motor;
- Install a new electric motor. Replacement is in reverse order.

Dismantling the device
In rare cases, the front or rear windshield wiper motor stops working due to some manufacturing defect. The problem is extremely rare, however, if you become a victim of it, there is nothing left to do but start special repairs.
To complete the procedure successfully, perform a complete dismantling . It is no secret that such a process is quite troublesome and time-consuming. Especially if you have to repair a part from old cars, such as Tavria, KAMAZ, Priora, and so on. In this case, you will have to use several separate steps, including unscrewing the nuts that act as fasteners for the levers.
In the future, you can begin to remove the levers themselves from the tapered splines of the drive. If you have any difficulties at this stage, the splines can be treated with penetrating lubricant . Next, the lever drives are dismantled by unscrewing the nuts, as well as removing the rubber gaskets and plastic bushings.
In the harness, the wiring block is disconnected and pulled out using the raised edge of the seal, through a special slot in the partition of the engine compartment. The next step is to remove the windshield wiper .
Now you will have to unscrew the washer from the removed device and remove the spring retainer . And also you can’t do without disconnecting the rod. As a result, all you have to do is dismantle three bolts and remove the engine. After a full visual inspection, begin replacing any faulty parts.
If this does not give any results, the only way out of the situation is to buy a new motor . If the problem is resolved, the glass cleaning system must be reassembled in the reverse order.
Replacement features and diagram
If, after a thorough diagnosis, you were able to determine that the motor is faulty, think about replacing the failed unit. At this stage there are no special difficulties, so even an inexperienced beginner can easily solve the problem.
True, you must understand that the features of the procedure vary depending on the model of a particular vehicle.
Therefore, before performing a series of any actions, pay attention to the technical features of the system , read the service manual for the car.
- First of all, you must unscrew the nuts securing the brush arm. The help of a wrench will come in handy here. Then remove them from their installation location. If difficulties arise, use a penetrating lubricant.
- Then you need to remove the lever drives by unscrewing the nuts that secure them.
- The next step is to disconnect the connector with the wires in the harness and lift one part of the seal through the hole formed.
- As a result, all that remains is to dismantle the wiper itself. Then remove the washer and spring mount. After successfully achieving such goals, all that remains is to disconnect the pull rod, unscrew the three screws and remove the motor. Unit repair is characterized by particular simplicity and speed of execution.
Geared motor from Volkswagen Transporter
Volkswagen's electric motor requires a little modification, but those who go this route are usually satisfied with the continued performance of the wipers and the stability of the windshield wiper.
This replacement requires minor modifications. In the 2005 “dozen”, the electric motor is connected to the trapezoid using a lever that has a large hole. Therefore, it is enough to change the lever (take a new sample), and everything will fit perfectly.
And one more point: when installing the motor on a trapezoid, you cannot place the engravers together with the bolts so that the crank does not touch them during operation.

VAZ 2110 windshield wiper motor - advice from car owners on repair and replacement
How to disassemble and repair the windshield wiper motor of a VAZ 2110
Repair of VAZ 2110 wipers mainly consists of straightening damaged or deformed levers or rods, and if this is not possible, then replacing them with new parts. If the VAZ 2110 windshield wiper motor is in faulty condition, it will have to be replaced with a new one. Regarding repair work, we can say that the VAZ 2110 windshield wiper motor only allows for the replacement of gears, as well as cleaning the contacts of the ring switch and cleaning the commutator.
So, in order to repair the windshield wiper on a VAZ 2110, you must first remove the windshield wiper from the car. To do this, first of all, the nut securing the wire is unscrewed, the wiring is removed from the gearmotor shaft, the three bolts securing the gearbox are unscrewed, then the wiper motor of the VAZ 2110 car is removed from the bracket, and the protective film is removed from it. The next step is to unscrew the two fastening screws and remove the plastic cover. Then the two fastening screws are unscrewed again, after which the panel is removed along with the switch contacts and the gasket is removed. Next you need to pull out the gear, plastic washer and gear motor shaft, then pull out the intermediate gears. To avoid any difficulties in further assembly, the gears should be marked relative to their axes, because they have opposite inclination of the teeth.

Windshield wiper motor repair
There are several factors and reasons that can cause such an important device to fail. In most cases, this occurs when there is no contact between the commutators and the brushes. If after inspecting the motor and thoroughly cleaning the contacts the problem does not disappear, you will most likely have to disassemble it and replace it.
However, before taking such drastic action, there are a few more ways to take decisive action to consider. If the gearbox is jammed and the levers are jammed, most likely a certain fuse in the system has tripped , which is called a bimetallic fuse. As a result, the system will not be able to cope with its responsibilities and will cause additional problems for the driver.
True, if you remove the part in time and carry out the appropriate repairs by replacing the fuse , most likely the malfunction will be eliminated in a short time. Provided that everything is done correctly, the windshield wiper will start working normally, as before.
The development of cases where the device is capable of operating only in a specific speed mode cannot be ruled out. This problem is of a completely different nature and lies in a problem with the switch or resistor . Here the brushes do not come to the lower position at all, which makes it necessary to adjust the stopping mechanism.
Situations where strange sounds and noises are heard when starting the windshield wiper are also not uncommon. If such phenomena are in no way related to dry glass, perhaps we are talking about some more serious problem.
What is a windshield wiper trapezoid and what is it for?
The trapezoids are around here somewhere!
The wiper trapezium is a special unit that converts the engine impulse into forward movements of the windshield wipers.
Simply put, it is she who is responsible for their movement along the windshield or rear window of the car. Since weather conditions are often unpredictable, and the windshield must provide complete visibility, failure of this part must be quickly identified and corrected.
Principle of operation
Most often, plastic bushings wear out in trapezoids.
Although, at first glance, it seems that the movement of the brushes occurs directly, in fact, a trapezoid, which is an electromechanical unit, is responsible for it. It works on the following principle:
- The windshield wiper motor uses the finger, which drives the trapezoid itself.
- Due to the connection of the gearbox and shafts, oscillatory movements occur, causing the brushes to move along the glass, cleaning it.
It often happens that the trapezoid fails. This happens especially often after or during the winter season. Some inexperienced VAZ-2110 owners turn on the “brushes” without bothering to clear the snow from the glass . Often the wipers freeze to the glass, and an attempt to move them ends in breakage. To prevent this from happening, you should always check the brushes before turning them on in winter for freezing .
VAZ 2110 wiper malfunction Solution
A simple solution to the problem at no cost.
At the next stage, you will have to remove the gearbox from the electric motor, remove the armature and clean all parts of old grease and dirt. Be sure to check how easily the VAZ 2110 wiper blades move in the brush holder. They must move there without any jamming and freely. If the brushes are already chipped or worn out, they should be replaced immediately, or the gearmotor assembly should be replaced. By the way, when changing the wiper blades of a VAZ 2110 car, you must solder their leads to the brush holder. In addition, you should also inspect the brush springs; if they have lost their elasticity or broken, be sure to replace them.
Read
Repairing windshield wipers on a VAZ 2110 also includes cleaning the collector with fine sandpaper , especially if it has scratches, scratches or is dirty. If the collector is burnt or badly worn, you will have to replace the armature or gear motor assembly. If traces of jamming are found on the anchor journals, they will have to be cleaned with fine sandpaper .
Those gear wheels that have broken or heavily worn teeth should be replaced. And damaged threads of the rollers of the brush levers and damaged splines require replacement of the rod assemblies.
Oxidized or burnt switch contacts should be cleaned with fine sandpaper . And those rubber cushions that have lost elasticity or are torn must be replaced. In order to remove the pillow, you will first have to remove the metal spacer sleeve from it.
At the last stage of repair the windshield wiper is assembled in the reverse order, only one point is taken into account: the inclination of the teeth of the intermediate gears must be opposite, and before installation they must be lubricated with grease along with the armature shaft worm.
In order not to break the brushes, when installing the anchor, their guides should be recessed. Then the armature is installed in the gearbox housing, and the VAZ 2110 windshield wiper motor housing is placed on it. After assembly, in order to center the bearings, you need to knock on the gearmotor housing with a wooden hammer.
How to determine that a trapezoid is “kirdyk”
Kirdyk is a slang word meaning an extremely bad situation.
It happens that the retaining ring of the bushing breaks and the rod simply flies out.
The slightest disturbance in the operation of the trapezoid can lead to incorrect operation of the wipers. Usually this part is replaced with a new one, although in some cases you can get by with installing a repair kit. Its cost is significantly lower than the price of the entire part, although repairs will take much more time. Here is a list of the main signs by which you can determine that a part will soon fail:
- Windshield wipers begin to do their immediate job poorly. This occurs due to the weakening of pressure.
- An unusual noise is heard during operation.
- A backlash appears, which can be determined even visually, since the glass will be difficult to clean.
- It happens that the brushes move in one direction easily, but back with difficulty, constantly slowing down.
All these problems lead to the fact that the windshield remains dirty, with streaks and smudges.
Repair kit for VAZ-2110
Most often, plastic parts are destroyed in the trapezoid. In this case, a repair kit can help.
When purchasing a repair kit, pay attention to the part number.
If metal parts are damaged, you will have to replace the entire trapezoid. As a rule, the trapezoid is destroyed as a result of an accident, or due to careless handling of the windshield wiper system.
Step by step procedure for windshield wiper repair:
2. The nut that holds the leash must be unscrewed.
3. Now remove the leash.
4. In order to remove the gearmotor from the bracket, you need to unscrew the 3 bolts that hold it in place.
5. The gearmotor is wrapped in a thin leather film; it must be removed.
6. Then you should unscrew the 2 screws that secure the black plastic cover.
7. Remove the cover and remove the next two screws.
9. Next, remove the brown gasket.
10. Remove the largest gear with the gearmotor shaft and then the plastic washer under it.
11. Next you need to remove two small gears, but before removing them, they should be marked. This is done so as not to confuse their location later. They have different tooth angles.
12. To disconnect the gearbox from the electric motor, you need to unscrew two opposite screws.
13. Remove the armature from the metal housing of the electric motor.
14. Clean all parts of the gearmotor as much as possible from accumulated dirt and old grease.
15. Use your fingers to press the three brushes into the brush holders; they should move freely without any difficulty. If some brushes are difficult to move in the brush holder, have cracks or other defects, then they must be replaced with new assemblies. If you replace the parts with new ones, then do not forget to solder the leads to the brush holder.
16. Next, we check the three springs; they should not be stretched or, even worse, broken.
17. Inspect the collector for damage (scratches) or dirt. If necessary, go over (clean) it with fine sandpaper. If the collector is very worn out and cleaning will not give the desired result, then it is necessary to replace only the armature or the entire gear motor as a set. Also pay attention to the upper part of the anchor; if there are traces of jamming (stripes), then also go over it with fine sandpaper.
18. If the gear teeth of the gearbox have gross defects (scratches), they must be replaced.
19. It is also necessary to replace the rods as a whole if the threads of the rollers of the brush levers or splines are defective.
20. We return to the plate with the limit switch contacts and, if necessary, clean them with sandpaper.
21. We inspect the leash fastening, or rather the black rubberized cushions; if they have lost their elasticity or burst, then replace them with new ones. Before removing the rubber, first remove the inner steel spacer.
22. After this, you can begin reassembling the windshield wiper, just before you start assembling the parts, lubricate everything (the armature shaft worm and gear) thoroughly with Litol-24 grease and pay attention to the two small gears you marked earlier, install them in their places.
23. Next, to install the anchor, tie the brush contacts with thread or wire so that they are folded. This is done so as not to break them during assembly.
Part of the old and new sample
Selecting a new part for a VAZ-2110 is not such a simple matter. Not everyone knows that there are old and new trapezoids.
Therefore, it is better to remove the old part and take it to an auto parts store. They are not only attached differently, but also differ in the connectors through which they are connected to the motor. If you can’t find an old-style trapezoid, and this is exactly what you have, you’ll have to redo the system or look for a used part.
- As a rule, trapezoids of a new type are available for sale from various manufacturers. One of the popular models has the article number VLT2110–5205010-Р .
If the windshield wiper motor is working properly, you can only change the trapezoid itself.
Replacement process
The easiest way to get rid of problems with VAZ-2110 windshield wipers is to contact a service station. There the trapeze will be replaced in an hour or an hour and a half. But if unscrupulous repairmen notice that the owner does not understand the cause of the breakdown at all, they can repair the car for half a day, saying that the problem is very serious.
Therefore, the best option that will save money is to replace the part yourself . This process works as follows:
Device and possible malfunctions
To understand the operation of the wipers, you will need an electrical diagram, which is present in the VAZ 2110 operation and maintenance manual. You also need to know what the unit consists of:
- The trapezoid is the main part through which the motor transmits movement; the trapezoid most often wears out, and as a result, repairs are needed.
- Electric motor - due to this unit, the wipers move; the motor can burn out, which will cause the failure of the entire unit.
- Pump - this element is needed to pump cleaning fluid into the wipers. If the pump breaks, then you can forget about keeping the front window clean, although the wipers will still run across the window.
- Tank - everything is obvious here, it stores window cleaning fluid.
- Windshield wiper – mounted on a trapezoid, performs a cleaning function. First of all, you need to pay attention to the size of the windshield wiper.
Repair and replacement are required when the motor is damaged, since it cannot be repaired. The trapezius also very often fails, but sometimes it can be restored. The assembly diagram is quite simple, so the owner of a VAZ 2110 will quickly discover the reason for the malfunction of the assembly.
Features of the electric motor design
The windshield wiper base consists of several individual elements. Among them are the following:
- lever axis;
- electric motor (device that drives the windshield wiper);
- brush lever;
- brushes;
- brush holder;
- mounting block;
- frame;
- gearmotor.
Regardless of the model and manufacturer, such parts are irreplaceable. Variations are explained only by model characteristics. For example, the latest innovations in the automotive industry include upgraded versions with a wide variety of functions.
Some of them have a heating function, some work automatically, reacting to any contact with water or dirt on the windshield. In general, these are all the existing parts of the device, so the next step in learning how it works is to review the basic concepts.
It's no secret that all glass cleaners are very fragile and vulnerable devices that require a lot of care and can break . Such a structural element is forced to cope with all the work of cleaning the windshield, therefore, with prolonged use, a problem such as rapid wear is noticed.
The trouble is associated with constant contact of the rubber brush with the surface of the glass and heavy loads. As a result, a good model should have impressive flexibility and rigidity.
How to check the windshield wiper motor? When checking the wiper motor for serviceability, it is enough to pay attention to a number of key subtleties and predetermining factors. One of them is weather conditions. It is no secret that prolonged exposure to low temperatures, heat and rain do not have the best effect on the condition and operation of parts.
Checking the windshield wiper motor is not difficult at all. If there are any defects, scratches or streaks . It is also possible that incorrect noise may occur from the operation of the brushes. In addition, the brushes can move very slowly, out of step, or very quickly. In this case, you should pay attention to the motor.
When inspecting, consider the condition of the relay or lever. If one of the important elements fails, this will be accompanied by movement of the brushes in different directions . If the windshield wiper blades begin to fly off during active operation, you will have to use a new wiper blade holder.
Principle of operation
Modern cars and many other vehicles may be equipped with two windshield wipers. A similar solution has a double design for the front glass.
It does not include rubber bands placed on the blade, which provide more efficient and productive work , as well as for the rear window (here we are talking about a single version).
Most existing models are capable of operating in three different modes:
- Slow mode.
- Intermittent operation.
- Fast work.
At the heart of each glass cleaner is a corresponding motor , which is equipped with a gearbox, brushes, a lever system and an automated mechanism that allows you to return the wipers to their original position.
In addition, together with the device there is a device for supplying water to the entire area of the windshield. If it fails, the motorist should seriously think about upcoming repairs.
Repair
To repair this unit, you need a minimum of tools:
- Set of keys and sockets.
- Screwdriver Set.
- WD-40.
- Rags.
- Replacement parts.
It is quite easy to determine which parts are not working. For example, if the wipers do not move, then the motor has failed. If the trapezoid moves, but the glass remains dirty, then the pump or tank is damaged. The size will help you understand what condition the part is in - if the size has decreased too much, then the element needs to be changed. In any case, you need to make sure of the speculations; for this you should analyze:
- The first step is to dismantle the car's dashboard;
- Next you need to find the relay related to this mechanism. It is screwed to the body of the VAZ 2110. If the electrical elements do not work, then the relay needs to be changed; repairs will not help;
