The rear wiper of my x-type estate 2006 does not work anymore. When I open the tail glass, I can hear a slapping noise, like if it released something stuck. I don't understand how it works, there is a round plate with a hole that doesn't seem to properly face the pin on the wiper, thus I don't think the pins enters the hole, which may explain.

Rear Wiper doesn’t work — Expedition Navigator

If the rear wiper doesn’t work on your Explorer or Navigator, pop the rear window open to make sure the wiper mechanism is disengaged from the motor drive plate. Next, open the beauty cover over the wiper arm attaching nut. Then, connect a dial torque wrench to the nut and rotate the wiper arm across the entire length of travel, keeping the blade touching the glass the entire time. Keep the window open during this test.

The torque measurement must not exceed 49 INCH pounds. If you discover that it is greater than this amount, replace the rear window striker/wiper pivot shaft assembly.

Corrosion on the wiper pivot shaft assembly causes excess torque and prevents the wiper arm from returning to the park position. The wiper system continues to attempt a park maneuver periodically and those continued attempts drain the battery.
