265 Express windshield wiper motor

[Benkovich]

I have 2005 265 Express that the wiper stopped working.
does anyone have any experience with these?
axis is pretty easy from the cabin. I didn’t know if you can just replace the motor or do you have to replace the entire mechanism?

You should be able to just replace the motor. If memory serves me correctly I was able to get the part number for the motor from Grady and just ordered the motor.

I believe there are different length shafts. Mine is an AFI brand. Looks like this one.

Same boat and I had the same problem a couple years back. In my case, the motor was fine and it was actually the helm switch that had gone bad, replaced that and everything was good to go.

Easy to replace. 2.5 inch shaft 90° sweep is what you’re after. Most wiper motors are adjustable these days. I picked up a 110° opened it and adjusted to 90. Most are 2 speed these days, I wired mine on the high-speed setting which I would highly recommend. Works great.
