can anyone shed lighton wiper motors and switches i am not sure whati have in my possesion. I need to find a source for new wiper switch, black connector with new pig tails and what do i have for wiper motor. Is it a variable, 2 speed or 3 speed for my 67 coronet. Pictuire would help.Im modifying a ez wire harness and im told i may need aresi8stance "wire"" any hep appreciated
 
I just did mine , I think I have an extra connector, female side. You would just need to re-pin it. I did away with my bulkhead to smooth my firewall so I ended up using a terminal block . Mine is a 3 SPD and I was able to use the existing switch.
If you're interested PM me your address and I'll send it to you.
 
any pics of wiring that you did??
Nothing of a close up or switch but here is the t block I used after eliminating the bulkhead connector.

My wiper is the longer barrel or motor housing

If it has the resistor on it that looks like a ballast resistor, it is a 2-speed wiper motor.
Looking for stock design/fit switches or some aftermarket switch?
 
Mine looks more like yours but longer body of armature

Most likely a 3 speed / variable speed wiper motor.
Easiest hookup is to use the original style switch.
A generic 2-speed wiper motor switch can be made to work by signaling two SPDT relays (or 4 SPST relays), but also requires a power resistor and diode.
 
451Mopar thank you would you mind providing a drawing i will use the 7 pole switch with the varible speed motor and what ever you say i need for the diode and specific relays.
