How To: Variable Speed Intermittent Wiper

I forgot about this

Dang I need to do that..

Great modification (if you want to call it that). Just put mine in over the weekend. 15 minutes to pull off the cover, remove the old unit, and replace. Back up and running and works great!

This was my first modification and it was easy. Thanks to the guys who figured it out.

I purchased my MPV stack from a salvage yard I found on www.car-part.com . $37.10 shipped to my door.

If you want to find a list of yards that have the part available you are looking for a "column switch" under the parts catagory. It will then bring up a screen with the option of the column switches. Your looking for the right side wiper control switch. You may want to try a few different years 99 and up. For some reason 99 doesn't offer the selection of which switch your looking for but the 2001 did.

I bought mine from Army's in Lima, OH. They were great to work with, took my info, pulled the part and then called me back and described it because it didn't have the part number on it.

Hope someone finds this info useful.

Has anyone found the wiper stalk from the Euro 626 on the internet? I've had no success locating it yet. Any suggestions?

BTW, this is my first post. Great site, lots of excellent information and good ideas. I've been lurking for a week or two. I just bought a white 2003 ES loaded with everything but the autodim mirror and cargo accessories.

First off, welcome to the board.

Second, I wrote Corksport http://www.corksport.com and they said they could order it for me. Still waiting to hear back from them. I guess it takes a long time to get them in.

That's $173.51 as of 9/04. Ouch! Too much for intermitten wipers, not to mention the freight charges. I'll make due with non-adjust wipers for now. I was hoping to find one from a salvage type place for like <$70.00. Am I dreaming?

for the sedan..probably

you would have to find a wrecked 626 in Europe. then get the parts shipped.

for the p5, you can definetly get one from the junkyard, 99+ MPV

oh~ I installed mine yesterday and it is cool mod to do~!
it only takes 10mins to whole job
I want to test it but no raining these days lol

 

[grishulia]

How did you separate the top plastic piece from the bottom one after you've unscrewed the screws?

 

[Bijou-MP5]

pull it upward with little force, top and bottom piece were attached to each other

 

[grishulia]

And they'll unsnap without braking anything?

On the left side I pressed the top part in a little and it unsnapped but I couldn't get the right side to separate...
