I hate dirt,anyone know how to reassemble these things ?



Willcox does this little wire just lay/rest against the silver case,I could not really see anywhere it was connected.



does this little resistor have a electrical measurement ?



I don't know why I do this sometimes,after watching the wiper motor test on utube and looking over the test papers I got the motor to run on high speed but it would not slow down,then after removing the blue wire motor parked once for me,then it would not do it again. And look at what happened now,what a mess.

Hi 71,
I think your best bet is the wiper motor section in the 71 CHASSIS SERVICE MANUAL. It has repair and reassembly instructions with pictures and diagrams.
Electrical- Body and Chassis- 12-38.
Have fun!
Regards,
Alan

Thnaks Alan
I have that book ,only problem is I have no clue where it is.
Anyone have that on there computer that can send it to me,otherwise I better go hunting for my book. NEVER MIND found both my AIM and Chassis Service Manual

TWEEKER ?? what is that when you do stuff like this,installed a grease fitting in the wiper arm shaft.


I wonder if people that "restore their cars" do this ?,go to these extremes,taking things apart just to
clean out the dirt and put new grease inside places like this

To me, that's not a bad idea.
