Hello everyone. I am new to the forum and new to skid steers. I wish I had known about this site before I bought mine as I had trouble finding reviews and opinions. Anyways I bought a 2006 Cat 262B. The machine was rebuilt and it is in very good shape. It has a few minor problems though. The biggest one is that the windshield wiper doesn't work properly. It is getting power and the wiper quivers bit is not able to move on its own. Is the motor burnt out? The glass on the door appears to be aftermarket as it is three separate panes and one cracked where it hit the hydraulic connectors. Two other minor things. The heater fan has very little blowing power and the interior light doesn't work. The heater would be nice to defrost the windshield but other than that its not a big deal.

Pull the motor on the wiper and check it out might just need to be cleaned and lubed......check the bulb and the fuse for the light........clean the mouse nest out of the heater

Wiper might have a sheard pin
Thank you very much for the replies. I will pull apart the wiper motor and take a look at it. I'm just waiting for a manual and once I get one I hope to be more familiar with the machine.

Replaced the wiper motor and now it works. Got the light working. Only thing that needs work is the cab heater. There is no filter either inside or outside, just mesh screen. Could this cause it to not blow hard? Seems to me it would make it blow harder but I don't know anything about them.
