Lada Kalina wipers work slowly
The windshield wipers do not work on dry glass or stop soon after being turned on. As soon as more drops have dripped onto the glass or sprayed from the windshield washer, the wipers begin to work normally again.
Apparently the motor doesn't have enough power. What to do? It is necessary to change the motor, because... does it stop when the glass is dry or slightly wet (but enough to interfere with vision, but not enough to reduce resistance)? Or is there something I can lubricate or replace? The assembled windshield wiper is sold for about 1.5 thousand rubles. and I don’t want to pay if it can be fixed.
Many Priora owners notice that over time the wipers begin to work slowly. The speed has decreased several times and does not rise even when cleaning the wet windshield. Let's look at the main reasons for slow wipers, as well as ways to solve this problem.
The main reason for slow Priora wipers is the lack of lubrication:
- in the windshield wiper motor;
on the hinges of the windshield wiper trapezoid.
Try to use a lubricant that does not thicken at low temperatures. The trapezoid with the motor can be removed, like on a VAZ 2110.
If lubrication of the motor and trapezoid does not help, we recommend using the modification. The Priora windshield wiper circuit consists of a large number of connections and contacts, each of which creates additional resistance. As a result, the power of the motor decreases, and the Priora's wipers work slowly. This problem can be eliminated with the help of modifications that will minimize current losses.
- 5-pin connector, like on the windshield wiper motor;
- 5-pin relay with socket - 3 pieces;
- wires 25 mm 2;
- round terminals.
We assemble and connect the structure according to the diagram. That is, the resulting block of three relays is installed in the gap in the windshield wiper motor connector without interfering with the standard wiring. We recommend that you pay special attention to the insulation of the wires, and it is better to close the assembled structure in a box to prevent the ingress of moisture and dirt.
As a result, the windshield wiper blades will work faster than before. You can compare the speed of the wipers using the video clip (1 - before modification, 2 - after modification):
Have you encountered a problem when the windshield wipers started working slowly on a Priora? How did you manage to increase their speed? Let us remind you that on the website you can also find instructions in case the windshield wiper blades do not work at all. Did you know that you can increase the cleaning area of your windshield by installing larger blades.

A> you're afraid you'll burn a lot of electricity? I’m afraid that when an oncoming Kamazyuk floods the glass, the wipers won’t have enough speed to brush it aside, you know, time will be expensive. With best regards, Porutchik. Email
Diagnosis - disassemble
The key reason for windshield wiper failure is the wear of the trapezoid bushings that transmit rotation to the wiper arms. Wear, of course, is a flexible concept. Thus, banal dry operation significantly reduces the speed of the mechanism. There are even cases of asynchronous operation, when one leash rotates as expected, and the second moves with a delay.
In advanced cases, the bushings jam, and the wipers completely stop responding to the driver’s commands. Basic observations will help you determine that the problem is really in them. When the windshield wipers are turned on, a heavy hum will appear in the area of the motor, and the on-board equipment lamps will noticeably dim.
The diagnosis in such a case is absolutely obvious - disassembly followed by troubleshooting. Perhaps everything can be done by smearing it with a thick compound that does not attract dust. It is quite possible that something else will happen: you will have to look for a new trapezoid. But in this matter there will most likely be difficulties. Owners of older foreign cars will have to look for spare parts at disassembly sites, and car dealers will have to study the difference between counterfeit and original. Yes, there are a lot of new parts for the same Priora, but there are no guarantees that the “new” one will be better than the previously used mechanism.
Another obvious thing. The trapezoid, whether used or new, needs revision. Simply lubricating the moving parts is enough and long-term trouble-free operation of the mechanism is ensured.
Is the motor turning slowly or is the relay clicking slowly? (-)

And if you bend the leashes away from the glass, does it also start slowly or faster? Without friction load so to speak..

Here's what people write: the machine is a month and a half old, the wipers started dying over the last two weeks, in other words, they started working very slowly, they didn't reach the end, they froze in arbitrary positions, then they started to slow down completely. Yesterday we stood in the middle of the glass. I admit, at first I thought it was a lot. There was no time to go under warranty - I went to my favorite service I knew. and this is what happened. 1. The windshield wiper motor on a viburnum can actually be removed in a minute. you will need a 10mm, 13mm wrench, and preferably a 10mm socket to make it easier to turn. 2. The motor itself is located in the direction of travel on the left in the area of the left windshield wiper. 3. Unscrew one nut that secures the motor to the trapezoid with a 13 wrench, then with a 10 wrench, the three bolts that hold the motor itself. 4. take out the motor, remove it from the connector. 5. remove the pseudo-insulation from leatherette)) look at the block, it is really not protected by anything and the mass actually comes with a copper wire to the silumin antennae :wacko: 6. I had everything in order with the contacts, so we disassembled the motor itself, with a screwdriver this is done at a time. 7. There was just a ton of rust on the main shaft of the motor - and this was on a machine that simply hadn’t turned over for a month, they treated everything and filled it with lubricant. 8. as an additional Measures treated the same contacts on the block and antennae with an antioxidant - oxygen will not pass through. As a result, the wipers do not drive across the glass, but fly, I’m just as happy as a boa constrictor. all for 400 rubles)) if I had gone under warranty, I would have paid 180 for a car wash, 100 for diagnostics, I would have lost a lot of time and gasoline to go there)) and here: After a short stop due to the holidays during a trip along a country road, I decided to use the wipers. nope, they sluggishly crawled out into the middle of the glass and stood up. So I had to drive, periodically stopping and helping them with my hand. :shok: an autopsy showed that the drive axis of the left leash had soured in the trapezoid. Yes, the trapezoid is made more durable than the eighth one, instead of plastic seals in the viburnum, bronze ones are used, well, they forgot to put in lubricant and think about sealing it so that no water gets in there. As a result, they spent a very long time watering the axle with WD and “pulling off” the soured seals. Z.Y. I began to notice a long time ago that the wipers had lost their former agility, but they worked properly until the car was parked for several days. Z.Z.Y. If you also have the feeling that they have become less efficient, then try to sort out the trapezoid. (You don’t need to climb into the gearbox, only the drive axles.) To do this, you only need a couple of latches and a pair of wrenches. a bottle of “lithium” grease and of course HANDS!
