    How can I bench test headlight wipers?

    So I picked up a complete headlight wiper system, The seller said that the motors were not working but it was pulled from a parts car so who know if something was disconnected or a bad relay etc. I want to test them out before hooking them all up in the car. Anyone one know a easy way to maybe put a couple leads on the pins and hook them up to some voltage or will this fry them? Any help is appreciated.

    You can't.

    Send them to me - I'll check and confirm they're broken and thus worthles, after which I will dispose of them properly completely free of charge.

      I would think that the wiper motor is running off of 12v's so I don't see why it would hurt to put 12v's on.
      I got a fender roller now! LMK if you need me to roll your fenders or want to rent the tool from me locally.

        It's hooked up to a 12V system, so it shouldnt. Just keep the amps down.

          i usually use an old 12v ac to dc converter from an old external hard drive to test wiring/bulbs/etc.

            I'm your man for this. Check my project thread "Japandrew73's OEM Restore".
            I have encountered almost every possible me problem and fixed them all for the headlamp cleaning system. I'd give you a link but I'm on my iPod touch so I can't copy and paste. But be sure to read my project thread from page one andyou will get all the answers you need ;)
