Vehicle Application and Function

The presented rear wiper actuator is designed for installation at the rear of the vehicle body, where it drives the wiper arm for the tailgate window. Thanks to its construction, which aligns with BMW's original solutions, the component works seamlessly with the original electrical system and drive transmission mechanism, ensuring smooth and predictable wiper operation.

Its placement at the rear of the vehicle effectively clears water, mud, and debris from the window, which is particularly important for daily urban and suburban driving. Stable drive operation minimizes arm vibrations and supports even pressure of the wiper blade against the glass surface.

Construction and Fitment for BMW 1 Series

As an OEM part, the BMW E81 / E87 / E87N Rear Wiper Motor is structurally adapted to the factory mounting points in the tailgate. This means that installation does not require body modifications or alterations to the mounting geometry, and the unit integrates with the existing wiper system.

The drive unit works in conjunction with the original wiper arm and gearbox, facilitating the maintenance of the correct wiper sweep range and proper movement path across the glass. Compatibility with the factory control system allows for the use of standard functions, such as intermittent operation or activation with reverse gear (if the vehicle is equipped with this feature).

Benefits of Using an Original Actuator

Using an original rear wiper motor in a BMW 1 Series offers a number of practical advantages, important for both the user and the service technician:

• Precise fit to the factory mounting in the tailgate,
• Compatibility with the original wiring harness and connectors,
• Maintenance of the wiper's operational range as specified by the manufacturer,
• Easier diagnostics in case of potential system malfunctions.

This ensures that maintaining proper visibility through the rear window is predictable, and any service work is simpler and more organized.

Characteristics of a Used Component

The offered rear wiper actuator is a used part, allowing for an economical restoration of the window cleaning system's functionality while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. A used component of this type is often chosen when the existing drive has worn out, stops at random positions, or has completely ceased to respond to commands.

Choosing a used original part is a sensible compromise between cost and maintaining the factory build standard, especially for vehicles used daily where functionality and correct operation of the wiper system are crucial.
