Wiper delay question
#16
The think this topic got a little OFF. The original post was 'he wants to mount a delay type switch on his 65'. From that point, the conversation goes to - mounting the later model switch on a 67' and up but says nothing about it working on his 65', - which is what I would also like to know.
Can we get back to the original question. Can the delay switch work on a 65' two speed moter. Also same motor on my 66'. I remember having no luck.
What am I missing...?

The answer is still affirmative. However, I am making the presumption that the '65 and '66 switch and motor are the same or at least similar enough to permit it to work. I have done it three times on '66s. Must be 2-speed.
It is so simple that the OP can hook up the parts he has in a few minutes and find out.

Have you considered getting a copy of the MPC on disk so you can answer these questions yourself?

My '69 F100 only had a two-speed wiper motor. After I stalling the switch and the governor/delay module/black box from an '87 F150, my truck still has a two-speed wiper but now with the addition of a variable wiper delay. I did this conversion on my truck about 4 years ago.

I have one actually. But I work in Alaska two weeks on and two off. I didn't bring it with me this hitch and am just trying to work out project plans for my next time home.

My '66 F250 4X4 had factory two speed wipers and the washer pump bellows on the floor (dealer add on). The switch was two speed (obviously) and it was set up to pull for washers, if so equipped.
Anyways, I grabbed a switch and governor setup out of a '90 F350 and it all plugged right in to the factory harness and works perfect with the original motor.

It is possible that the rumour that the intermittent system doesn't work with a Bosch motor is true. I haven't a clue what a Bosch motor is, or how to identify one.
Give it another try. It's quick, easy, and makes your truck a lot more enjoyable for a minimal outlay. That's fun, right?

Plus you don't have to remember to bring anything separate as long as you bring the computer itself.
Just a recommendation.

It's been a bit but I finely got around to trying to install this in my 65. Looks like I do in fact have the older style switch.
So..... From anther post of mine you may be aware that I have a 66 2wd cab on my trailer. It was fully optioned out and appears to have the washer push button on its switch which I pretty sure is compatible with this delay upgrade. I'm wondering if I could swap the entire dash cluster and switch wiring and fuse block from my round style gauge to the sweep cluster. It has the dual gauges on either side of the sweep as does my factory found cluster. The doner has all the switches and such which I'd swap out at the same time. Wondering if the firewall plugs are the same...
