I don't need it now, but the price is right and I was thinking that these parts may become scarce. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 That's a reasonable price, and an easy upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryBumkin Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 That's a reasonable price, and an easy upgrade. That E-bay link is not the same place where I got my replacement Governor. I did buy off E-bay but I paid $50 for the Governor alone (no switch). As I had previouly bought the Wiper Switch from RockAuto for $25. So I could have saved some money if checked E-bay first.

That is a good call to have a back up. I have one extra, but now that I have a second truck I might need to go pull another one, or two, at the junkyard. They are cheaper there but obviously used.

Rembrant Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 That's a reasonable price, and an easy upgrade. Question on the factory delay wiper switch/modules: What about the vans? or Bronco II and Rangers? Did they by chance use the same delay wiper parts? I know this is probably a dumb question, but how exactly do they operate? I now have two wiper speeds...slow and fast. With the delay wiper switch, does it just add a 3rd position, with a slower/delayed wiper speed? The delayed part is a fixed speed in itself?

In reverse: The function is that the wipers have a variable delay between low-speed sweeps. The third position on the switch, which is to the left of off, is to a resistor and the farther left you go the longer the "off" interval is between low-speed sweeps. As for the parts from different vehicles, I can't actually answer the question. All I can say is that the vans and little Broncos and Rangers have a different part number. But I can't tell if they will work - although I doubt it or they would not have different parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense. I didn't realize the delay was adjustable. Perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
