Womala Right Headlight Washer Motor OE 31276118 for Volvo V40 2013-2019 Auto Parts

Core Components & Functions

• Core Components

1. Motor Body: A 12V DC electric motor with a gear reduction system, providing sufficient torque to drive the washer pump or extend/retract the washer nozzle (depending on the V40’s washer system type). The motor housing is sealed with waterproof rubber rings to prevent water ingress.
2. Wiring Connector: An OE-matched plug that connects directly to the vehicle’s electrical system, ensuring stable power supply and signal transmission (no need for wire modification).

• Core Functions

1. Power the Washer System: Drives the pump to spray washer fluid onto the right headlight, removing dirt, mud, or insect residues—restoring headlight brightness and ensuring driving visibility in harsh weather (rain, fog) or dirty road conditions.
2. Support Nozzle Movement: For systems with retractable nozzles, the motor controls the nozzle’s extension (when in use) and retraction (when not in use), protecting the nozzle from damage.
3. Waterproof & Durable Operation: The sealed design resists water, road salt, and dust, ensuring stable performance even in low temperatures (-20℃ to 60℃).

Installation & Usage Notes

1. Confirm the motor is for the right headlight (left and right motors have different wiring or mounting orientations—do not interchange).
2. Disconnect the vehicle battery before installation to avoid short circuits. Follow the V40 service manual to access the washer system (typically behind the front bumper or right fender).
3. Ensure the motor’s waterproof seal is properly seated during installation; check for leaks after connecting the washer fluid hose.
4. Test after installation: Activate the headlight washer function (usually via the windshield washer lever) to confirm the motor runs smoothly and the nozzle sprays normally.
5. Regularly check the washer fluid level and clean the nozzle—clogged nozzles may cause motor overload and damage.
