Fitment questions

Will a wiper motor from a 2013 Nissan Leaf fit a 2011 Nissan Leaf?

The first-generation Nissan Leaf ran from 2011 to 2017, so a 2013 motor and a 2011 motor are from the same generation and the front wiper motor is very likely to be compatible. That said, always confirm with the breaker against your registration to be certain the part number matches before buying.

Does a wiper motor from a first-generation Leaf fit a second-generation Leaf?

The first-generation Leaf covers 2011 to 2017, while the second-generation (ZE1) ran from 2018 onwards, and these are distinct platforms with different body designs. Whether a motor crosses that generation boundary is not guaranteed, so ask the breaker to check the part number against your registration plate before committing.

Is the front wiper motor the same as the rear wiper motor on a Nissan Leaf?

No — the front and rear wiper motors are separate units with different fixings, connectors, and specifications, so you must specify which one you need when contacting a breaker. Make sure any quote you receive clearly states front or rear to avoid receiving the wrong part.

Does the trim level affect which wiper motor I need — for example, will a motor from a Visia fit an Acenta or a Tekna?

Trim level does not affect wiper motor fitment on the Nissan Leaf — the motor is determined by generation and whether it is front or rear, not by whether the car is a Visia, Acenta, or Tekna. You may find minor cosmetic differences around the wiper area between trims, but the motor itself should interchange within the same generation.

I have a 2016 Nissan Leaf — will a motor from a 2018 Leaf fit it?

The 2016 Leaf sits in the first generation (2011–2017), while the 2018 Leaf is second generation (ZE1, from 2018), meaning these are different platforms. It is unlikely the motors are a straight swap across that generation boundary, so confirm with the breaker against both registration numbers before purchasing.

How do I make sure a used Leaf wiper motor will work when I get it from a breaker?

Give the breaker your full registration number and ask them to match the part number from their donor vehicle, specifying whether you need the front or rear motor. It is also worth asking the breaker to confirm the motor was tested or came from a running vehicle where possible, as this reduces the risk of receiving a faulty unit.
