I'm hooking up the stock windshield wiper squirters on my 1966 F100 but I'm not getting power to the electric motor when I pull on the ****. The two speed windshield wiper function works fine. The number cast on the switch is CSTB-17A553-B. Does anyone know the part number? Has anyone pulled the switch apart and fixed it instead of replacing?

The two speed windshield wiper function works fine. The number cast on the switch is CS TB-17A553-B. No such ID number, the 2nd digit in the prefix is a number, not a letter.
Some 1966's use a push button for the washers, located left side of dash, above the ignition switch.
Windshield washer push button (2C-11500) used on all 1965's. 1966's with one speed wipers and on early 1966's (before serial number 760,001) with 2 speed wipers.
1966's from serial number 760,001: The following is the 1966 2 speed wiper switch, that when the **** is pulled out, activates the w/shield washers:
C6TZ-17A553-B .. 2 Speed Wiper Switch-7 terminals (Motorcraft SW-736): Marked with ID number: C6TA-17A553-A or B / Obsolete ~ Dozens available NOS
Applications: 1966 F100/950 & N/NT/T500/1000 from serial number 760,001 / 1966 Econoline from serial number 760,001 / 1967 Econoline / 1967/69 N/NT/T500/1000 & F800/1000.
Thanks for the info, it was a 6, not a S (hard to read the little cast numbers). This switch is the pull for windshield fluid as found on the trucks made later in the year I guess.
the window washer harness is seperate from the main harness. As I recall this switch has a blade off to the side from the main harness that the washer harness plugs into...the washer harness plugs into the fuse block blade at the top which are always hot...
I suspect it was added later as they were not OEM for '66 Slicks.
I believe the windshield washer floor pump "billow" was optional on the earlier '61-'64 Slicks.

It came from the dealer that way. Maybe they had an old one on the shelf and they stuck it on?

I believe the windshield washer floor pump bellow was optional on the earlier '61-'64 Slicks.
OEM manually operated and electric foot pump bellow washers were available as dealer installed accessories for all 1953/66 trucks and were factory installed on 500 and larger 1967/90's trucks.
The OEM 1965/66 push button type washers were also available as a dealer installed accessory.
(sigh) OEM: Suggest you invest in 1965 & 1966 accessory brochures. Then you can see all the accessories FoMoCo offered that most of y'all have never seen or heard of.
