Tech Torque Pre 1973 / Re: 1966 2-Speed wiper motor question
« Last post by jiffy on February 26, 2024, 11:33:30 am »
Just to confirm how this is operating:

Wipers are low on windscreen at park, turn them on and the up-sweep covers the full windscreen, but the down-sweep only reverses to about halfway, then goes back to full-sweep position, then this cycles until you turn the power off?

When you turn the wipers off, the wipers return to their position low on the windscreen? Or do they stay mid-sweep?

This to me sounds like you have an electrical problem within the wiper motor. The motor is returning halfway before re-energising (possibly in reverse) for another upsweep, then this continues until the power is removed from the motor until it returns to the park position. You may need to check your wiring.

Tech Torque Pre 1973 / 1966 2-Speed wiper motor question
« Last post by GtgBevitt on February 24, 2024, 05:31:40 pm »
Hi everyone,

I’ve converted my ‘66 coupe to RHD, and I’m having trouble getting the wipers to sweep correctly.
Originally I thought it was a problem with where I relocated the motor, but what I’ve found is that the “park” location of the motor is further down the windscreen than when the motor is operating.

I have the park location correct, and at full sweep is good (parallel with the a-pillar). It’s on the downsweep whilst operating that only wipes to about 45degrees, rather than right back down to the bottom of the screen.

I’ve pulled off the cover and inspected all gears, everything appears to be working correctly.
I suspect it might be a length issue of the linkage (because I’ve converted to RHD might need modification), but with the max sweep and park location correct, I didn’t want to throw that out.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

They certainly do look small in the wheel arch, but l assume you’re sticking with original rims.?

Yup - I replaced all the rear suspension joints and steering rack-ends prior to pick-up, so he's had 18 trouble-free months as far as I know.

Spoken to him a couple of times, pretty sure he's happy with it....

Tech Torque Pre 1973 / EPAS steering on my 1965 Mustang

Hi all,
I am looking at fitting a EPAS Steering system to my 1965 I6 Mustang Coupe.
The reasion for electric version instead of the say the Borgerson system is my car has
AC and I don't want to put more load on the engine and take more power away from it.
What i'm after is an Australian supplier as to keep money in Australia and not send my money out of the country.
Not sure of which steering box is in the car (16:1 or 19:1).
Sorry if this has been asked already but I did a search and didn't get a desired reply.
Many Thanks
Gary
