The interior noise generated by the windshield wiper system including a wiper motor, the motor mountings and linkages is considered as a structure-borne noise. The structureborne noise is closely related with the system vibration which was transmitted into interior cabin through the car body. In this study, the frequency characteristics of vibration in the wiper motor system were first identified through the frequency analysis. Then effects of the wiper motor mountings and linkages on the vehicle interior noise were studied through in-vehicle measurements. Finally a possibility of noise reduction at a certain frequency was revealed from the study.
