Triumph GT6 Wipers & Wash System

The Triumph GT6 wipers and wash system changed significantly between marks, and getting the right parts starts with knowing which motor your car runs. The Mk1 used a Lucas DR3A electromagnetic motor with field coils. From the Mk2 onwards, Triumph switched to the Lucas 14W PMDC (permanent magnet DC) motor, a two-speed, self-parking unit that's far easier to source and service today.

If you're on a Mk2 or Mk3, the wiper motor part number 725374 supersedes the original 712913. Same fitment, different marking, don't get caught out ordering by the old number. We also stock the Tudor-specification windscreen washer bottle in OE form, and the chrome bezel kit (octagonal nut, bezel and seal), so you're not hunting down individual pieces.

One upgrade, the Smartscreen intermittent wiper controller, is something worth considering. It fits all post-1967 negative-earth Triumph models with permanent magnet self-parking motors, making it correct for the GT6 Mk2 and Mk3. It won't work with the Mk1 field coil motor. Smartscreen tucks behind the dash out of sight, uses your original switch, and needs no extra holes or knobs.

We've been supplying GT6 parts from our Lincoln warehouse since 1982, despatching to 195 destinations worldwide. If you're also refreshing the GT6 Exterior Trim and want the bezels to match, or need related electrical components from GT6 Electrical Parts, it's all here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GT6 Mk1 wiper motor the same as the Mk2 and Mk3?

It isn't. The Mk1 runs a Lucas DR3A electromagnetic motor with field coils; the Mk2 and Mk3 use the Lucas 14W PMDC permanent magnet motor. They're not interchangeable. And if you're planning to fit a Smartscreen intermittent controller, that only works with the PMDC motor on Mk2 and Mk3 cars, the Mk1 field coil unit won't accept it.

Are the GT6 wiper motor part numbers 712913 and 725374 interchangeable?

Yes, they are. Part 725374 is the factory supersession for 712913, covering GT6 Mk2 and Mk3 models with identical fitment. The change happened when the original stocks ran out. Order by either number and you'll get the right motor. If you're sourcing alongside other electrical items, find it through GT6 Electrical.

Can I fit a Smartscreen intermittent wiper controller to my GT6?

Yes, on Mk2 and Mk3 models. Smartscreen is compatible with all post-1967 negative-earth Triumph vehicles fitted with permanent magnet self-parking wiper motors. It fits behind the dash out of sight, uses the original switch, and leaves your interior looking completely standard. The Mk1 DR3A field coil motor is not compatible.

Do I need the full bezel kit, or can I buy the parts individually?

The kit is the better buy. It includes the octagonal chrome nut, chrome bezel and seal as a set, and it costs less than sourcing each piece separately. For related body and exterior components, see GT6 Body Parts & Fittings.
