The wiper rack is the mechanical linkage assembly that converts the rotary motion of the wiper motor into the sweeping arc movement of the wiper arms across the windscreen. On the Defender, a worn or damaged wiper rack typically presents as erratic wiper movement, grinding noise during operation, or complete failure of one or both wiper blades to sweep correctly. Accurate replacement with the correct rack assembly is essential to maintain proper wiper geometry and blade contact pressure against the windscreen.
