1968 elec/vac issue
Still having problems with the "system", looking for suggestions. The vacuum system works for the headlights, however the wiper system (elec/vac) does not work? shorted out the wiper motor so I know it works, purchased new dash wiper switch...no wipers. What do I do next? Thanks for any suggestions

I'm not sure about the exact location but if the wiper door is open but the wipers won't run there's an electric limit switch that senses the door is fully open. It's mounted on the firewall. Make sure it's present, that the button is pressed and that it actually works. Just a simple SPST NO switch so make sure it conducts with the button pressed.
