Description
Right Windshield Wiper Motor Bosch for Peugeot 407. Passenger Side.
Replace your faulty right (passenger-side) front wiper motor with a reliable Bosch unit designed to restore smooth, quiet wiping and secure park positioning on Peugeot 407 vehicles. This electric motor drives the wiper linkage to clear the windshield, improving visibility in rain and adverse weather. The part is commonly searched by its product codes, so including these identifiers improves findability for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts looking for a direct replacement.
Key Features
High-quality electric drive from a reputable supplier, built to interface with the Peugeot 407 wiper linkage. Designed for the passenger-side front wiper, the motor provides the torque and intermittent operation needed for safe, reliable wiping performance.
Typical Symptoms Indicating Replacement
- Wiper Arm Does Not Move Or Moves Intermittently
- Unusual Grinding Or Clicking Noises From Under The Cowl
- Wipers Stop In Wrong Park Position
- Slow Wiper Movement Or Loss Of Intermittent Function
How The Part Works
The wiper motor converts 12 V electrical energy into rotary motion, transmitted through an integrated gearbox and a linkage assembly to move the wiper arm across the windshield. Proper park position is managed by internal mechanical stops or an internal parking circuit so the wipers return to their rest position when switched off.
Installation Recommendations
- Disconnect The Battery Before Starting Work To Avoid Short Circuits.
- Remove Wiper Arms And Cowl Cover To Access The Motor And Linkage.
- Mark The Wiper Arm Position Before Removal To Ensure Correct Reinstallation And Parking Alignment.
- Disconnect Electrical Connector And Remove Mounting Bolts; Fit New Motor In Reverse Order.
- After Installation, Reconnect Battery And Verify Correct Wiper Park And All Speeds/Intermittent Settings Work Properly.
- Check Fasteners And Connector For Corrosion; Replace Any Damaged Clips Or Seals To Prevent Water Ingress.
Why This Part Most Often Fails
Wiper motors commonly fail due to brush wear inside the electric motor, water ingress leading to corrosion of electrical contacts or gearbox components, mechanical overload from frozen or obstructed wipers, and long-term wear of internal gears. Environmental exposure (rain, road salt) accelerates deterioration of seals and electrical connections, making the motor more susceptible to faults.

Practical Notes For Mechanics And DIYers
This motor is a direct-fit replacement for the right/front passenger-side wiper of Peugeot 407 vehicles. When installing, ensure the wiper linkage is free and lubricated and that electrical connectors are clean and secure. If the linkage shows excessive play or worn joints, replace or refurbish the linkage at the same time to avoid premature load and failure of the new motor.
Using the correct product codes when searching increases the chance of finding the exact matching unit fast. Suitable for professional workshops and experienced DIYers who follow safe installation practices and verify wiper alignment and function after fitting.
