Diagnosis
If your 1999 Lincoln Town Car’s windshield wipers are not working properly, the problem could be with the wiper motor transmission. The transmission is responsible for converting the rotary motion of the motor into the linear motion that moves the wiper blades.
There are a few symptoms that can indicate a problem with the wiper motor transmission:
* The wipers may not move at all.
* The wipers may move slowly or erratically.
* The wipers may stop moving in the middle of a cycle.
* The wipers may make a grinding or clicking noise.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to have the wiper motor transmission checked by a qualified mechanic.

1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
2. Remove the wiper blades.
3. Remove the cowl panel.
4. Disconnect the electrical connector from the wiper motor.

6. Carefully remove the wiper motor and transmission.
To install the new wiper motor transmission, simply reverse the removal procedure. Be sure to tighten all bolts and nuts to the specified torque.
Testing
Once the new wiper motor transmission is installed, you should test it to make sure it is working properly. To do this, simply reconnect the negative battery terminal and turn on the wipers. The wipers should move smoothly and evenly.
If you are still having problems with your wipers, there may be another issue that is causing the problem. You should consult with a qualified mechanic to have the issue diagnosed and repaired.
