Volvo Back Glass Wiper Motor - Genuine Volvo 32341523

Product Information

A back glass wiper motor is the electric motor that powers the rear windshield wiper on hatchbacks, SUVs, and some wagons. It drives the wiper arm back and forth across the rear glass to clear rain, snow, or dirt, ensuring good visibility through the rear window. The motor is usually mounted inside the tailgate or hatch and works in sync with the wiper switch and washer system.

• Rear wiper not moving at all, often due to a burned-out motor or internal electrical fault.
• Slow, intermittent, or stuck movement, caused by a weak or failing motor.
• Unusual noises (grinding, whining, or clicking) from the motor area when the rear wiper is engaged.

About Genuine Volvo

The original parts used by Volvo to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Volvo” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Volvo, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Volvo Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Volvo are not necessarily manufactured by Volvo. No cause for concern, as Volvo designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Volvo for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Volvo parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Volvo logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
