Wiper switch
Does anyone have information on what wiper switch I could use on my 1955 ford f100? I’m trying to get my truck back on the road. I might need wipers working. And how to test my wiper motor.
thanks
jerry

I will check under the dash since I have everything apart. I am rewiring the truck since my last harness went south.
Thanks
