Windshield Wipers

[dcknight]

I need a passengers side windshield Wiper arm, Pivot Shaft and rubber grommet for a 2005 Monaco Windsor.  They were made by wiper technologies with Dyna Wexco part numbers of, Arm 201566 and Pivot Shaft 300798.  The parts are no longer available from the manufacturer.  Anyone have any experience or suggestions. Thanks

Try NAPA or call Monaco and talk to Parts Dept.  Amazing what they still have in stock!

Here is a few used part options;

one of my friends went through the same issue with his 05 Tiffin. I’ll ask him where he sourced his parts from. As I recall they were no longer available and he found something close that was able to be retrofitted to work.

Here is where he got his and a few contacts below

I replaced the entire wiper system on my 2007 Dynasty after i bought an arm from Monaco. Then they did not have the shaft. Paid half as much for the arm as the whole system. I will check tomorrow for the company that custom made the new wiper assembly.

Ivy,

Might I suggest locating an RV Salvage yard. There your should be able to find most anything you need for your wipers. As Carl will tell you when ever I am anywhere  near Carthage, MO. I will check out Colaws RV Salvage (Exit 22 on I-44) for any thing I need. I have saved several thousand of dollars by going there.

Linda has a 2006 Tiffin Phaeton 40' DP.  I replaced her wiper arms...O' Reilly Auto Parts, found them!

If you ever need just the blades, Wal Mart is the cheapest, with a big selection.

Monaco had problems with windshield wipers. AM Equipment, Jefferson, Or, 541-327-1546 built my new wiper assembly. I think it is better than original.

Was it slipping on the shaft? That shaft doesn't look that bad. What do the splines in the wiper arm look like?

Wildbill308, the splines look very worn from slipping in the arm assembly. Usually happens when lock nut becomes loose.

Colaws has a complete Monaco wiper assembly P/N 09309284. If you want the entire assembly give them a call (877-548-2125) They are open at 8:00 am csdt.

So, you have seen the inside of the wipe arm?

Bill, in a picture above, he took the arm off the motor shaft.

The shaft doesn't look all that bad. I can't see enough detail in the hole in the wiper arm.

I know it has only been 4 day since the OP but he hasn't responded to any of the suggestions or questions. I wonder if he found a solution or Not. Just wondering????

I think if it was mine, i'd reinstall the arm to the proper clocked position, index it, remove everything, reinstall the arm and tighten the nut onto the pivot in a bench vise, drill a small hole through the arm and pivot, break it all down, reinstall the entire unit, put it back together and drive a roll pin into it. Everything is already worn, no loss at this point. 

Cost you some time and a few cents for a roll pin. 

[wildebill308]

I like that idea. I am wondering if you cleaned the arm mounting hole with a wire bottle brush and some acetone. Clean  the shaft at the same time. Then assemble it with some loctite red making shure the arm is clocked the right direction. Also make shure it is torqued to the hi side of the speck.  If this doesn't hold I would go to the roll pin.

Roll pin?  You making biscuits or pie crust? The devil made me say it now back to the topic.

Like others have said, the motor shaft looks good so it must be the splines in the arm are bad.

Yes roll pin not rolling pin.

Yes but are they? These are not finley machined parts just crudely stamped spline like markings to improve the grip. I have seen several of these type connections that just came loose and slipped. I bet if cleaned and prepped as I posted earlier it would hold. If not move on to the roll pin fix. or spend the money on a new arm.

If you do decide to replace the pivot shaft, have you contacted the manufacturer or supply house to see if that part number has been superseded by a new part? Often times they use specific numbers for each RV manufacturer, but the underlying part can be replaced by a part with a more generic number.
