Hi,

The drivers side wiper arm failed yesterday, so now I need to buy a replacement.

The motor and spindle seem ok, it's just the grooves in the arm that have worn off smooth.

I tried swapping the passenger side wiper arm as a temp fix but it catches the bodywork.

Where is the best place to buy one from please?

I am looking at eBay but I can't seem to find one.

Fiat Ducato LHD A Class 2002


Thanks
Dave

It'll probably have been put on by the converter, dethleffs ? Not much to do with fiat.
Measure length needed then go halfords and match up length and fittings.

Motor homing since 1998.
May just want tightening, the splines are on the post & the arm is smooth. The nut often comes loose.
If it's similar to a Hymer I think they're a Volvo part.

Hi all,
Thanks once again, the correct part I've found out is a Bosch wiper arm with windscreen wash and is unavailable to purchase from any UK motor factor ( I have tried about 15 including the ones Bosch UK recommended to me), Bosch will not sell me one or tell me how to get one. This part was also used by Mercedes and once again having tried everywhere no joy.
Tried eBay Germany, Poland, Czech and no one has one in stock, I have emailed Dethleffs direct and I am still waiting for a reply.
The owners club are trying to help as well by using their contacts.
The wiper arm hole that fits over the spindle is smoothed off with no grooves, the spindle grooves look ok.
If I can't get the part I think I am going to put 2 self tapping screws through the arm in to the spindle, I think this along with the liquid metal might hold for a while.
Thanks
