for some reason my wipers do not function from controls on the column. so to pass inspection, I was thinking of wiring them just enough to get one speed.
which wires would make a circuit to run my wipers at one speed? Attached image(s) |

Hi Jim, the terminals closest and furthest from the wiper motor transmission will work. The other 2 terminals are used to park the wipers. Brad

thanks : )
i will pick up 3 relays, as i need to run a temporary circuit for my horn too. and i want to put on on my starter too, mcmark style. maybe though i might use a ford heavy duty relay for this? Attached image(s) |

Jim did you check to see if the male pins coming from the switch are all there ?I found 2 of mine had pushed through the wire retainer,its a pain to fix but will get you going,just an idea. |

probably not my problem. these things were all working before i switched fuse boxes and fried some wires. i think the only 2 things not working now are, horn and wipers. are they on same circuit?
just found this thread and seems they are? http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...p;#entry1906897 >> does anyone know if the horn/wiper relay is the typical black round plastic type? seems the answer is yes. i found this pic. if i am lucky, i will simply need to replace my horn relay.
