There will be a greater load on the battery when the engine is idling when the generator current drops. So over time if the full load you mention happens all the time then slowly the battery will lose its charge but only if the full load you suggest is there all the time, which is unlikely unless one only drives at night with wipers on and never in the daytime with the lights off.</div><div><br></div><div>The stall current you mention is what happens if for example the wiper blades are frozen to the windscreen. If this were to happen the high current of about 8 to 10 amps will soon overheat and damage the motor so inside the motor is an overcurrent thermal devfice that disconnects the power, so there is no need to be concerned about this.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, 14 Mar 2021 at 20:23, Bob Haskell <<a href="mailto:rchaskell@earthlink.net" target="_blank">rchaskell@earthlink.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">All big Healeys use the DR2 wiper motor?<br>
