Comment. The operation is shown on the example of replacing the drive of a car with a hatchback body. On the Astra station wagon, the operation is carried out as on the Zafira model (see below, «Zafira Rear Wiper Actuator - Replacement»).
Execution sequence
1. We prepare the car for work (see «Preparing the car for maintenance and repair»).
2. Fold back the dirt cover on the rear wiper arm.
3. Using a 13 mm wrench, unscrew the nut securing the wiper arm.
4. We notice the location of the brush on the rear window and remove the lever from its drive.
5. Remove the upholstery of the tailgate (see «Upholstery of the tailgate of the Astra model - removal and installation»).
6. Disconnect the wiring harness block from the gear motor.
7. Using a thin slotted screwdriver, remove the stopper of the internal mechanism of the tailgate lock switch and take it aside.
8. Turn off the TORX E8 key with three bolts securing the motor-reducer bracket and remove it.
9. Install the parts in reverse order.
