Wiring diagrams

I am looking for a wiring diagram for my '73 Ford F-100 and can't seem to find them anywhere, looking to replace some wiring. Any help would be appreciated.

And how to tell if I have intermittent wipers?

As far as I know, the 100's didn't come with intermittent wipers.

Intermittent wipers were optional on all 1973/79 F100/350's.

No F100/350's came with these wipers as standard equipment.

The intermittent wipers timing can be set by turning the wiper **** to the left.

If the **** cannot be turned to the left: No intermittent wipers.

According to the 1976 F-Series Brochure, they were standard equipment on the Ranger XLT. Ranger XLT's before 1977 came with the Convenience Group which included in 1976....

Intermitent Wipers
12" Day Night Mirror
Map Pockets
and Glove Compartment Lock

Reference 1976 F-Series Brochure Page 4 and 5, under "Ranger XLT Interiors".

However you can say that the Ranger XLT trim package was itself optional.

Wipers

ok that helps another dumb question is if i took the switch out, how would I be able to tell for sure if it was or was not intermittent wipers? I had this problem with another part when someone told me that it wasn't the right thing and i ordered the part only to find out it would work

Intermittent wipers has a module that is wired to the switch...if your wires go straight from the switch to the wiper motor, it's only a 2 spd switch. Blue Oval pm me with your wiring questions and I may have something that will help. I have completely went through my harness and inspected condition, removed what wasn't needed and added what I needed. Updated all the circuits to blade style fuses.
