intermittent wipers
I have an intermittent wiper switch from a 70's f series truck that I want to put into my 78 F-150. But I am not positive how I go about that. Any advice??

Thanks Supercab2!! I found the article I believe you are talking about. The switch in the pictures looks just like the one I have. At least now I know where to put that control box. Thanks to everyone for their help with this.

I was able to get one out of a 85 or so Bronco for about $5 out of a boneyard and everything works great!!!

The 85, did it have a seperate control box? I was trying to find a 73-79 delay at the local scrap yard but no luck! We did find some older model ones though.. how do you make them work?

I found one out of a 1985 f150 (switch and conlrol box) for my 1977 f250. The 85 has one pulg that goes to the control box, and a ground wire . The 77 had 2 plugs. Just plug the large one from the 77 into the 85 control box and the small wire one (2 wires) so that the black with green tracer goes on the only lug left in the control box. Done was the coolest thing i ever did to that truck for under 3 bucks. Works great.
