I’m having wiper switch issues, before digging too deep I will definitely check the ground as you did and go from there. Without this C3 video series I would be chasing my tail. Thanks again Tom, the gold standard of how to teach and trouble shoot. I encourage everyone to subscribe and hit that thumbs up button and make this great channel grow! It’s the least we all can do. Thank you Tom.

I am rebuilding my 72 coupe from ground up, completely rewiring the car using an aftermarket system. American auto wire highway 22 I'm also relocating the fuse box in the compartment behind the seats so that means that all the wiring had to be built. And on top of that, I am eliminating the vacuum system and replacing it with electric motors. Headlights doors motors are done and working fine but I struggled a bit with the wiper system. Yeah I know, self inflicting pain LOL. Tom you have no idea how much this video helped me. Thanks a lot SIr.

@TheTaxreliever 3 года назад

Hey Tom, I agree with everyone here....you are one of the best I've seen so far (and I've seen A LOT) when it comes to teaching/explaining. I am NOT a mechanic; not even close and you've helped me tremendously with my 69 wipers. FYI, it wasn't anything electrical....once I dug into it, the bolt/bushing for the actuator wiggled lose and was never connecting the power, so need to just hook that part up once I get brave enough to start taking the door off so I can get to it. I'm learning.....and your videos are incredibly helpful. Thanks again....I am super surprised, with the great C3 following out there, that you don't have 10x's the followers you do...it's just a matter of time I suppose. Keep up the great work.

Great video, but if I started troubleshooting, I would go with what I deem to be the easiest check or the wiper fuse. I was working on my wipers and found a bad fuse today. I'll swap it tomorrow to see if that is the fix... if not, your steps have helped me a bunch.

@fontking1a Год назад

I've owned a 1969 427/435 since 1970. Just had a new wiper motor installed and everything was working fine. All of a sudden my windshield WASHER comes on when I use my wipers in slow or fast speed. The washer won't go off until I return the switch to the OFF POSITION. Can the problem be the switch itself? Most people are saying it's the pump wheel that goes around and then locks into place. That is all new but the switch is 52 years old. I've ordered a new switch just because the original is so old. Any guesses?? Great job on all your videos. Thanks for any advice you can provide.

@lb4626 Год назад

I just started watching your videos since I pulled my vette out of storage after years, super helpful. Question about this video, where did you find the small black wiper motor cover for a 1969 when not putting back the sprayer?!? I can’t find one anywhere. If you see this, thanks.

@ericaiken6375 2 года назад

Thanks tom, if not for folks like you the rest of us would really struggle and do thing wrong. Everything went as you described. I have one curious problem. I only get one speed (low). If I remove the green wire I only get high speed, and it wont park. Any thoughts?

Hey great videos, but on my 1971 the problem is that when I switch on the wipers nothing happens. Wiper door does not open, but when I use the override switch under the steering column to open the wiper door it opens obviously and the wipers work. It’ s a new switch along with new relays and vacuum lines. Am I missing something? Thanks Frank Toronto

@bmwspeedman 3 года назад

Great vid as always Tom! Quick question, which way do the wipers go? What I mean is, which wiper sits at the bottom? Is it the driver side or passenger side?

@ProblemSolverGarage 3 года назад

I’ll check when I get home, one of them presses a vacuum relay when it’s all the way down, that’s what controls the door to open and close, I believe the passenger side is at the bottom but I’ll double check when I get home. Next video vacuum system for the headlights and wiper door

@agentt7740 2 года назад

Tom... this may sound like a stupid question, but here it is anyway.. My son has a '71 Corvette (just purchased) and the three wires going to the wiper motor (harness) has 2 hots and a ground. Is this right? The "blue" wire is a hot wire and by your video, should be a ground. I did test the new wiper motor just as you had shown and it works... even works on the car if I am using jumper wires. But when I connect the harness, nothing. The washer works when I press the switch but nothing from the motor. I have not taken the dash apart to see if the connection on the switch is in the correct position. Can you give me some advice? I appreciate it.
