Wiper Motor/Switch Wiring ! What goes where with Painless???

Recommended Posts

I have my entire Painless 18 circuit harness done and working, except for my wipers, which are giving me a tremendous headache. I will post some awseome pics on the entire harness as soon as I get these $% wipers working. Mainly, I need to know what wire goes where? the blue Painless wire goes to what color on the combo switch? Currently, I have it to the black wire. When I do this, I have power on one on the yellow wires on low setting, and then power to the other yellow wires on high setting. I have no power to ANY of the wires when I push the washer button.

 

I made a couple temporary jumper wires to the wiper motor. I grounded the black wire. The ONLY activity I get is when I put a 12 volt supply to the far right terminal on the wiper motor, and the ground wire to the other far right terminal on the wiper motor. When that happens, I get what sound like a relay click and that's it.

 

So, what am I missing?? Why isn't the washer button working? On the 5-pin connector, what wire goes to what color on the combo switch??

 

ANY help would be appreciated.

 

Thank You !!!

What model is your vehicle? 240-60-80-etc? Year?

1) Do you own a shop manual for it? or have access to one?

2) Is an electric circut tester/multi-meter an item in your toolbox?

Its (probably) DC powered if you do have one, Is the battery good?

If you answered NO to 1 or more of the above, I believe resolving those will bring you much closer, if not right to it.

 

Chances are someone here is able to provide you with the info you seek.

However, some basic (important) info is missing from your question.

 

 

Not trying to be a wise guy, I'm just trying to lead you in the right direction.

It is a '72 240Z, SBC 327. I have a wiring diagram, but the wiper motor is very vague. It just shows the motor and the different colors coming out of it, then the combination switch diagram is also very vague. Yes, I have a very good digital multimeter.

 

I see many people have done this painless wiring upgrade? Nobody knows what wire goes where on the wiper switch??
