Frequently asked questions about Saab wiper linkage repair & replacements

- The mechanic will advise if any other parts need to be replaced.
- The mechanic will test the windscreen's wiper system to ensure it works correctly.

How do you know if your Saab wiper linkage is broken?
- When you can hear the motor running but the arms are not moving
- If the wiper arms get stuck in various points on the windscreen
- When only one wiper arm moves
How long will a wiper linkage replacement take on my Saab?
A wiper linkage replacement usually takes around 1 hour, but can take less or more time. Ultimately, the time that the job will take will depend on a number of factors, like your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
How often should I replace my Saab wiper linkage?
Due to the regular use of the components and the climate in the UK, wiper linkages often fail through wear and tear. If you suffer issues that point to a problem with the wiper linkage, like one of the symptoms listed, you will need to get this repaired immediately. It is a dangerous defect to have faulty windscreen wipers and also therefore a legal requirement.
How can I extend the life of my windscreen Saab wiper linkage?
Obviously there is little you can do about wear and tear over the years, even with the following advice.
- Don’t switch on the wiper system when the blades are frozen to the windscreen. This causes undue stress on the linkage and cause the joints to pop apart.
- Similarly if the the vehicle hasn’t been used for a while, lifting off the wiper blades from the screen will unstick them and cause less stress on the linkage when you first use it
- Always switch off the windscreen wipers before switching the engine off and leaving the car. This will ensure that they do not come on automatically the next time you start the engine (preventing the above scenarios) but also allows the wiper arms to be “parked” and not left at an unusual angle with which to start from. Again, this reduces the stress on the linkage.
- Regular basic maintenance, such as lubricating the wiper motor linkage and replacing worn wiper blades all help with longevity of the linkage.
How much does it cost to replace wiper linkage on Saab?
On average a wiper linkage replacement costs around £85. Typical prices can range anywhere from £50 to £160. Ultimately, the cost depends on your car and what parts your car's manufacturer recommends using for the replacement. Find out what you could save by having your windscreen wiper motor replaced by ClickMechanic by selecting your car at the top of this page!
