Ford Fusion Wiper Motor Replacement Parts

The Ford Fusion sold in the UK ran from 2002 to 2012, and wiper motors are generally generation-specific, so you want to match the part to the correct year range of your car. The Fusion received a facelift in 2005, which can affect components like wiper systems, so it is worth checking whether your car is pre- or post-facelift when contacting a breaker. Always confirm fitment against your registration with the breaker before purchasing.

A 2004 Fusion is pre-facelift (2002–2005) and a 2006 Fusion is post-facelift (2005–2012), so these sit either side of the facelift boundary. Whether the wiper motor crosses that boundary and remains compatible is not something to assume — confirm with the breaker against both registrations before buying. This is exactly the kind of cross-boundary question where a breaker can check part numbers to give you a definitive answer.

For wiper motors, trim level does not affect fitment — the motor is determined by the generation and whether it is the front or rear unit, not by whether the car is an Ambiente, Zetec, or Ghia. You may find minor cosmetic differences in surrounding components, but the motor itself should interchange across trims within the same generation. Confirm the specific part against your registration with the breaker to be sure.

No — front and rear wiper motors are entirely different units and are not interchangeable. When contacting a breaker, make sure you specify clearly whether you need the front or rear motor for your Fusion. Getting this wrong is one of the most common mistakes when buying used wiper motors, so double-check before ordering.

Engine size has no bearing on wiper motor fitment — the motor is matched to the vehicle generation and front or rear position, not to what is under the bonnet. So a motor from a 1.4 Fusion and a 1.6 Fusion of the same generation should be the same unit. Confirm against your registration with the breaker to be certain.

Ask the breaker to confirm the part against your full registration number, as this is the most reliable way to check compatibility for a used wiper motor. It is also worth asking whether the motor was tested before removal, as reputable breakers will often be able to tell you the condition of the part. A used part is never guaranteed, but buying from a breaker who has checked it against your reg gives you the best chance of getting the right unit first time.
