So had the fresh air box out anyway and noticed when I took the car to the Phoenix Club swap meet out here that the wipers were moving REALLY slow. Now I know why.
Couple of questions:
1. Obviously there is/was a short to ground of some type. The thought has occured that it might be the motor itself. I'd like to know if I should just test it in place or remove it, clean up ect. I looked for threads, but I really don't want to take it out if it is working, but I am concerned the the motor itself might be shorting the wires or shorting them. What should the values be at the terminals?
2. How much of a pain at this point is taking it out? I know...it's all a pain under the cowl but is it easier to just try and take the whole frame assembly out? Open to any and all suggestions.
A few pictures. Of course, you start by replacing and the tie rods and new sway bar and it slowly starts to travel through the whole front end...."While Your're There".
BTW car is a 73 with the column switch.
