Electric washer with wipers activation, Nice additions to SirAndy's tutorial - now with PICTURES Options

[HalfMoon]

I finally installed that switch. I was planning to take it apart and fix the issue but it fitted in aside was and worked well.
The new switch is a bit more rigid than the old swf but that's because it's new. Not a real issue.
Make sure the pump sits lower than the water reservoir or else you'll need to prime the pump every time you use it and it will overheat and burn it eventually.
If you go through all the trouble of installing the pump, wire the programable intermittent relay as I did. You won't regret it.

I really really want to try that. Electrical isn't my strong suit and worse, I'm horribly color blind. I'd have to get help (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
It's an uber cool mod!

And help I will now ask for!
Valy, due to my extreme color blindness (I know most of you will roll your eyes at this), could you identify which two wires are supposed to be seperated from the plastic wire loom and run down the colum for hook up to the pump and the fuse block?
The physical location of wire "A" leads me to think it's probably a black wire and one of the wires that's supposed to go down the column for use of the washer pump hot or to the fuse block (in your directions it did't seem to matter), but I'm having problems identifying the second wire that must be seperated from the original plastic wire seperator for the mods use. I think it might be wire "B"?
As an aside, I've decided for now to not use an intermitent relay. I'm just hooking up the washer pump. I'll tackle the intermitent mod you've described at a later time.
Thanks alot for any help you can give me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Don't worry, I understand your situation. I have a color blind son myself.
You don't need to take anything apart on this switch. Just get the A (53c in my diagram) wire to the pump (hot wire) and connect the other pump wire to the ground (body).
That's it.
You may want to take off the pneumatic tubes on the switch to make the installation easier. Also make sure the water reservoir is vented, I drilled a hole through the cap.
When you activate the pump, the wipers should run as well. When you add the relay, the wipers will run a bit longer upon activation.

Oh cool! I must have misunderstood some of the directions. I thought I'd have to use the relays to obtain the activation of the washer with the wipers, but now I see that the relay merely adds a delay (intermitent). That is way cool! And there's no second wire from the switch to the fuse box for powering it. Also cool!
And I thought I was going to have to exchange my old platic wire loom holder for the one that's currently on the new wiper switch. But I gather that the one that's on it as ordered will work?
Jeez, if this is gonna be this simple I can't understand why every teener owner on the planet wouldn't do it, lol!
Thanks for the tip about removing the pneumatic tubing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

It's all plug and play except the new wire (A) that needs to be connected to the pump. That's it. Yes, it's simpler than adding an external switch (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Daaaa ummm! Hoping to get it done tomorrow.
Hopefully adding the two relay's down the road will be a snap as well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)
Thanks much for helping out friend!

Oh oh....
Well I got the switch and installed it but no love.
One of the big reasons I got the switch was not only to get power for a pump I installed but also to hopefully correct what I thought was a bad wiper switch as my wipers stopped working completely (although I never did have a high side function)
Anyway, I hooked up the 924 switch and no love. No doubt caused by pin 53a at the wiper being zero ohm. And oh yes it blows the fuse at slot 8!
But the really odd thing is this....when I removed the rd/blk wire from the wiper that connects 53a, the low side of my wiper starts working when the 924 stalk switch is in the off position with all the other positions non-functional. The self parking doesn't work either. It begs the question about the switch being plug and play? Is it truly or when doing the install are any of the wires on the 924 switch supposed to be re-routed down the plastic router at the switch? And of course compounding the problem is the unknown year of the motor and how that could effect the routing of the wires on install.
No doubt the wiper motor is bad as zero ohm at 53a isn't gonna work at all, but odd that I'm getting functionaility when 53a is unhooked.
I wonder which pin does what? That could be useful in trouble shooting....
Grrrr.
