★ The Hotchkiss M201 was fitted from production start in 1955 with an electric windscreen wiper system with central motor — a significant improvement over the vacuum-driven system of the Willys MB and Ford GPW.
Application
Suitable for Hotchkiss M201 (1955-1967) with electric windscreen wiper system. The M201 was fitted from the start with a central electric Marchal wiper motor that drives both wipers via a connecting rod. 2 pivots are required per vehicle: one left and one right.
Installation notes
The pivot is fitted from inside through the windscreen frame and secured on the outside with the supplied nut and washer. The wiper arm is placed on the output shaft of the pivot. On the inside, the pivot connects via a ball joint to the wiper linkage driven by the wiper motor.
Compatibility
Specific for Hotchkiss M201 with electric windscreen wiper. NOT compatible with Willys MB or Ford GPW — these vehicles had vacuum-driven windscreen wipers with a different mounting method. Also not interchangeable with later civilian CJ models.
Historical context
When developing the M201, Hotchkiss opted for an electric windscreen wiper system instead of the vacuum-driven wipers of the original Willys MB. This ensured more reliable operation, independent of engine load.
