87607, Installing interval wipers on non interval RS
Posted by brokenrodguy, Jul-28-05 08:46 PM
I have an RS and it only has 3 modes for wipers. Has anyone ever added interval timed wipers ? What would it take to do this ? Can I just pick up the whole modual with new switch or is there a computer somehwere else controling it

I have an rs, But mine has intermitent wipers. As far as I know just take out the wiper switch on the steering column and put in the new one.

Nope.. Search and ye shall find.. It may be hard to find the post but someone tried it and it didnt plug into the same.. Computer may actually be different for it too I heard. There were reasons why it wouldnt work

Actually it works just fine. You have to have the plug from a GS model with the switch. Then you solder the plug from the GS into the wiring harness on the RS and mount it. It's just the plugs that aren't compatible. I sold about 5 of these about 2 years ago.

the only way it would work is if the harness was simply off and on and the with had a computer in it to control it. It wouldnt work if the switch sends a signal somewhere else to time it and go on and off from there. So I need to know where "on and off" are switched.

Thank you for correcting me aaron. I am a gs so I dont have to worry about this. However im glad you corrected me, I just knew this wasnt a plug and go kind of project.

That was my post. I would have worked had I got the same switch from the same year. Apperently I purchased a switch from a 97, it dodn't work on my 95v due to the plugs being completely different. There were pics and everything.

EDIT:
I read the post above, guess alls i need is the plug pat from the steering colomn then. all is not lost :thumbsup
