1986 Camaro Berlinetta wiper circuit board

Hi!

I'm new in this forum and I hope someone can help me. I have a 1986 Camaro Berlinetta and the "pcb" "like round piece" (it's off completely) inside the wiper circuit board, so the wipers won't work at all, everything is dead and I can't find this part at all. Is there someone who can help me, do you have one for sale?
Is there a way to bypass the "pcb" piece, so the wipers will work (even without the pulse) I need at least on/off.
I'm a woman and I don't know too much about cars. I will be very very greatful for any kind of help.

Have a great day

They are all over eBay I just typed in Berlinetta wiper control. To answer your bypass question I'm not sure but I'd say no, don't take that 100% because like I said I'm not sure.

you need whats reffered to as a wiper motor cover. AND when you install it there is a certain way you have to do it or it will break that plastic drive . if you like the car ,id suggest you buy the factory service manual for it. it takes all the guessing out of repairing your car

Re: 1986 Camaro Berlinetta wiper circuit board

I am not exactly sure what part you are talking about, if its the control pod in the dash there are ways to bypass it but you will probably have to experiment with it a lot and you will go through a few fuses. if it is missing a part of the circuit board you are best off buying a new one, be careful on ebay though they are expensive and don't always work. check here http://berlinetta.info/parts.htm
for one. some times you can repair a bad one by re soldering all the circuit joints. like I said I am not sure this is the part you are talking about.

the berlinettas are know for having annoying wiring problems but once you figure them out you end up with a really unique and awsome car.

on the wiper motor theres a black plastic cover (its under the hood on the firewall by the brake booster) this is where the delay part of our cars works it often dies after 20 or so years so go on a treasure hunt for it, it properly installed brings it back to life
