Wiper wiring conversion help needed.
I am in process of installing a Ranger wiper motor on our 1960. We have the new motor in place following krautwolf's gallery.
I have the intermittent switch from an early 80's F150.
OK here is the deal. 4 wires from the motor, black, red, white and blue.
6 wires on the plug coming from the 80's vintage intermittent switch, see photo below. The red plug goes in the switch I already installed in the dash. The black plug will be removed and wired direct since I don't have the mating plug.
There are 6 wires on the black plug.
1) One black going to the red plug thus to the switch- I assume this is where I should hook up the power supply.
2) Another black going to the "box" - I assume this goes to the black wire from the motor.
3) Red going to the "box" - I assume this goes to the red motor wire
4) White going to the "box" - I assume this wire goes to the white motor wire
5) Blue going to the red plug thus to the switch - I assume this goes to the blue motor wire
6) Black with a white tracer going to the red plug thus to the switch - I assume this is for a washer which I don't have.
I would really like someone to double check my logic, I don't want to hurt my new wiper motor.
Thanks for the help.
