  3. Test the motor by connecting battery power to terminal No. 2 and ground terminal No. 4 of the wiper motor. The motor should run. If the motor does not run or fails to run smoothly, replace the motor.
  4. Connect an analog ohmmeter between rear window wiper motor 4P connector terminals No. 3 and No. 4. The ohmmeter should indicate continuity and no continuity alternately. If it does not, replace the motor.
