A wiper linkage assembly is a mechanical device that transfers power from the windshield wiper motor to the wiper arms. Commonly manufactured from stamped steel components, the wiper linkage assembly is typically composed of two or three sections, with some assemblies using four sections of linkage to complete the system. The wiper linkage assembly is designed in such a manner that the linkage drives the wipers through a full sweeping motion across the windshield when in use.
