Excellent video, so glad I found this. I tried to use a wiper motor last year but got frustrated and gave up, glad I am getting a head start this year. this video is going to help get me there.

I learned more from you then any other video I seen! Excellent job dear lady

holy dream woman i thought this unicorn didn't even exist :O thanks for your videos im glad i finally discovered you

Thank you. I am making a short film and was needing a movable cannon mounted on top of a car for a scene. It needs to be able to move around and then park facing straight forward. I can’t see the cannon from inside the car, so the park feature is perfect! You are a gifted teacher, I subscribed to you.

Excellent. The best video on KZread for understanding wiper motors and applying them for the many alternative applications, without an electrical engineering degree.

We made an aluminum can crusher from a Wiper Motor years ago. What's more affordable now and interesting for motion are Linear Actuator's Maybe educate us on those?

Those are great! I'll put it in on the to-do list! 👍

You're amazing! I have been looking for a good tutorial regarding this the past month. Very happy to have found your channel! 😁

Glad to help! Halloween is just around the corner - let me know how you make out!

Best instruction have seen. You rock.

Just found your channel. It came up in my feed when looking for wiper motor information. Love your presentation, antics, and a very simple explanation to how a wiper motor works/functions without getting into all the technical jargon. Very entertaining🤣😀 You explained it much better than most of the automotive guys out there 👍who attempts to explain it by using wiring diagrams and more technical terms to where non-technical people would not understand. I do understand what they are talking about because I do have a similar background. Awesome job. I look forward to binge watching some more of your videos. New subscriber here👍😎😀

Your video helped me figure out my wiper motor wiring. It wasn't for anything fancy just my windshield wipers. But your video still played an important part.

Great Ideas! Love the Screen Shot Moment. Thank You for sharing and producing this video. It was Super Interesting,

🤣 I admit I took a screenshot myself as a reminder to have a plan for my projects once in a while.

I'm so glad I found you here. I loved you on AGG!

Amazing tutorial... great teacher

Excellent tutorial. Thanks.

Rewiring my old Fiat and this is what I really needed to get the wiper motor working correctly. Thank you!

Glad it helped!

Thanks this has been an amazing help

Rachel is simply the best 👌 👍

Yr channel seems to help me alot .

Have you tried using just the yellow and green wires for power? If you put the green wire on plus 12 volts and the yellow wire on your ground, it'll spin clockwise. Reverse it for counterclockwise. Oh yeah, it'll go a whole lot faster.

Enjoyed the video. You're pretty, so that immediately gives a 'click' advantage, but most important, you're an excellent teacher! When you tell someone 'do this' and it 'does that' it's a lot harder to retain the information. You do a great job of putting things into perspective, and this truly helps to process and understand the how/why and how to actually apply it's use. Most of it is irrelevant to my needs, but I watched the whole thing because your personality sparkles

Good work, and please do real time project using rain drop sensor with 12 volt wiper motor controlled by arduino uno and L298N motor driver. Thank you for all of your previous works.

My congrats from Spain!!! THANKS! I needed to learn how to use this type of motors. I wish to create an animatronic pirate!! THANKS AGAIN!

Thank you

Great video Rachel, you are beautiful as always. I haven't thought about using wiper motors in a while. Such uses as space ship orbiting, ferris wheel, merrygoround etc.., all depending on size n scale. The use of the speed control is a winner. I used to always, as you shown, regulate the speed with voltage.

Oooo.... space ship orbiting! That would make a great project!

Excelente canal 😄👍

Glad I found you as most others actually wiring things for cars, not what I'm after! I have 2 wiper motors that I'm currently trying to get to work, so I'll take your advice and see if i can get my dancing santa to work, for starters. I have a speed controller with a switch already attached. Of course it came from China so no tech specs or instructions!! Thanks for clearing that up mostly. I am wanting to power mine with a 12V battery though. Should I change to maybe a 6V one?? Only 1 speed controller and 2 motors. Of course they are from a hyundai accent, my mum trashed her last car after letting her licence lapse, so I raided it for parts before it was collected by wreckers. One is main wiper motor with 5 completely random wires, the other is the rear hatch wiper motor and only has 4 wires, i assume 1 is still park, so I gather it will only offer 1 speed option. Any guess or insight much appreciated. I subscribed already 😊

Thank you for the video. What’s the exact model of wiper motor that you are using?

So happy that I found your channel! You're AMAZING!! What can I attach to the wiper motor so it's "longer". I have a coupler and it just keeps unscrewing. Ughhhh. I'm trying to use the motor for my Jack-In-the-Box crank. Thanks.

I imagine you want a longer arm. Unscrew the arm that your motor came with and bolt a piece of aluminum flat bar to the length of your choosing in its place. You can find aluminum flat stock at your local hardware/home improvement store. Let me know how you make out!

🎉 seriously your like the COOL Auntie i wish my grandkids had around :)

Output torque at motor shaft is fixed you are describing what force can be expected based on varying length moment arm.

Is there a recommended gage if wire to be using for this?

I'm trying to make a remote control electric winch to lift "up" and "down" my EV charger on a rope. (like the cable carrier on a crane)

Hey there, you swiped my helmet and have it there on the bench. I might have to head there and take it back!

Yaaas! It's a souvenir cup I picked up at some theme park a few years ago. I now use it as a pencil holder. It's on the table because the "antenna" broke off and I need to super glue it back on 🤣

what kinda wiper motor is that?

Tuga!

Should be a teacher,, i can actually understand what she is saying Great Job!

Another reason to hit the junkyard.... gonna be using a wiper motor to power a 'mosh pit' for my heavy metal snowman band. Will be using individual 'reindeer' motors so the band members will look like they're banging their heads. The bands name???? Sleigher......

Beatiful Woman 🥰

but.. and there is always but: using an electronic circuit to control a torque motor with heavy duty uses is not useful: coz passing thru low voltage to reach the requested speed at an specific voltage which is unreadable in fact, this can damage the motor and even the electronic card... we already know that the operating voltage is 12V SO, A knob switch and a relay are still the best to handle such system " in cars " anyways: u r a brave woman .. 👍

please answer me Rachel

"The longer the arm, the less torque it's going to have"? More correctly stated - The longer the arm, the less force you will have at the radius. Torque is always the same value. It's pounds at inches or inch-pounds
