so everything is pretty much gone in the truck and i kind of need windshield wipers. is there any way i can wire them to a toggle twitch? where is the motor located?
Motor is located in the engine bay on the passenger side. Theres one plug with like 6 wires. One is + one is - and two others control the speed the last 2 idk what those do
You probably need a 3-position switch so you get the two speeds. The stock pull switch is 3 position on my 75. Wiper motor is located on passenger side firewall next to hood hinge. I was curious if anyone knows if it's possible to either add more wiper speeds with a new switch or speed up the stock motor? Even on "fast" they don't go very fast and it would be nice to be able to know its a possible upgrade wipers for those who want the feature.
thanks for the replies. im going to go ahead and wire this straight to the battery to see if it still works. my dash is pretty much completely gone so i had no clue how to turn them on lool
I bought a FSM on ebay a while back. It has a section for the wiper motor wiring. Not very detailed but it will give you something to work with. Il take a pic and post it later tonight
Just a heads up, i tested mine and went off of this little diagram and i didnt need to use the "S" terminal(not sure what it does) Positive, ground, positive to the 1 and 2 For the speeds.
When I got my truck it had no dashboard. I wanted wipers so I made an on-off switch for the wipers, but it ran so fast it looked as if the wiper blades may sling off. So I got a few blower motor resistors from the junkyard and ran the power going to the wipers through the resistor to cut down the voltage and slow the wipers down. I tried a few different resistors till I found the one I like . Then added a multi position switch to use the different high, medium, low speeds of the resistor. I will snap a few pics and post when I can
