Re: IML: More '60 wipers



Well Donn,

As Paul already mentioned, it could be the parking switch that is attached to the motor assembly. I don't hope so, cause it is quite a challenge to replace the motor assembly...

I have had the same problem, and it turned out to be the wiperswitch.
After replacing the switch everything worked fine again.

Good luck,

Robert

Are you sure that all the wires are connected properly? I believe, the parking process actually reverses the motor, causing it to flip a switch built into/or attached to the motor simultaneously with the wipers meeting the bottom of the windshield, and then shut off.

It should be possible to obtain another wiper motor w/linkage from Imperial Heaven. I did this job years ago and it wasn't easy.

Tonight I reassembled the original 1960 wiper switch after cleaning all the contacts and put it back in the car. Now I can't get the wipers to park at all.
They stop where ever they happen to be when I turn the switch off.

I then took out the 1960 switch and installed the 1962 switch which I had
already disassembled and cleaned....I get the same "no parking" problem.

Prior to fiddling with either of the switches, the wipers, on ocassion, either wouldn't turn off when I turned the switch off and/or wouldn't park properly.
Usually it would starting behaving again fairly quickly.

Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this? The service manual is
lacking in much help.

Thanks,
Donn Reese
