Wow! Are these brand new wiper delay modules? I have been hoping someone would build a replacement. Didn't want to go with a used one because the original modules were not very rugged or reliable. They even say on them do not drop. The used ones on ebay are not cheap either.

 

I believe the ones from Jeff's are brand new. The eBay ones are pricey but I pulled the full switch/relay assembly from the local JY for $21, with a warranty if they didn't work.

 

Good work and great price. Most Pnp's won't give much of a warranty, maybe 30 days?

I checked with my local Pnp's and they all knew what I was after because they were all gone and they get a lot of calls for them around here. I'm in the PNW area where we get a lot of mist. So delay wipers are the bomb here.

 

I picked up one of the delay modules from BG. They are aftermarket replacement parts that were produced for Dennis Carpenter. Oddly DC didn't list any for sale for our years. So AFAIK BG is the only seller???

I was able to replace the module from under the dash. I have a manual trans so the clutch makes it a bit more difficult. I had to fab a long L shaped tool to reach in to hold the back of the plug going to the wiper motor. Made from some small steel round stock I had. But any long stiff L will hold the plug so you can plug in the module.

It probably easier to remove the wiper switch to get that plugged into the module but I decided to leave it in place and remove and replace the plug to the switch from behind. It's doable but I used a mirror, some surgical forceps to get it lined up and started. Then pushed it on with my fingers. If you have long skinny fingers that's a bonus for you. Mine are short and fat and it wasn't easy to get it flush plugged in. Barely reached! Removed the original plugs with a screw driver. Easy peasy.

The original module had a foam tape wrap up to keep it protected from bumps and maybe to keep it from rattling around too. I carefully removed the foam for possible reuse on the new module. I found a spot on the underdash ledge under the switch which with the way the harness is wired held the module in place there. I might put the foam protection on the new module if it rattles. Otherwise good to go. Works just like the original!
