Re: 97XJ Rear Wiper Motor
All the ones I have ever seen are seized up where the shaft goes through
the door. The motors are basically fine, but when they shaft seizes it can let the smoke out of them or just arc the brushes that a clean can fix.

Re: 97XJ Rear Wiper Motor
I have never replaced one because 'all' the ones I have been able to
find at the wreckers are seized in the same way. For inspection purposes, I remove the thing and put a nice pretty grommet in the hole and have never been asked about it.... On the ones that don't need inspection I just leave the squirter hose sticking out the hole. It is a great tailgater removal tool. ;-) But yes, I have several tubes of dielectric grease kicking around and cleaner that I use everywhere.

Re: 97XJ Rear Wiper Motor
I've started cleaning and greasing any connectors, and all the grounds, I
come across whenever I work on the Jeep. I'm not having any problems at the moment but I'm in the mode where I hope that I can prevent any corrosion related electrical problems from happening. My neighbor gave me a can of the stuff they use on German cars. It works well but I am not looking forward to the day I have to buy another as it is almost $20 per can. I'll probably just go back to Permatex or whatever brand is on sale that day. I'm not sure what advantages it offers for electrical connections other than it sets up clear and is not sticky so it doesn't attract dust.
