Can I swap no delay wipers for intermiten? Here's the deal. I can swap into my car an entire tilt steering column with the leather Camaro wheel for a standard column? The problem is currently in the car are regular wipers and the tilt column has intermitent. Is there a difference in the wiring? What needs to be rewired and does anyone have a diagram on them? Do I need to change the wiper motor also? ------------------ 86 Camaro Black SS Coupe, T Tops, Flowmaster, Custom Paint, Dunlop Road Kings S/R tires, Wheel Country Directional Chrome Wheels,new charcoal & gray interior including seats and door panels, new carpet and headliner, complete front end suspension rebuild, new Valve seals, and more mods to come http://www.angelfire.com/sports/niterider/86camaro.html Morgan_Andre@hotmail.com http://wsphotofews.excite.com/029/qv/c5/GL/6f87941.jpg |
You'll need to swap in an intermittent motor as well; it'll just plug in and go. Your existing motor will work the same, except for it won't have the delay feature. No wiring changes need to be made (unless the column is from an 82 or 83 F-body).

It depends on the years of the column. I changed over from reg to intermitant. I had to get a new turn sig lever and a new switch inside the column. Also, I did not have to change wiper motors. Only the wiper motor's black plastic cap has to be changed. If it's an 86, I can give you the GM part number if you want it. ------------------ -Justin- T-Top '86 5.0L LG4 700R4 WS6 T-Top '92 5.0L TBI 700R4 My '86 Firebird Homepage The F-body Model Kit Pictoral Archive (updated 5/30/01) There can be only one!!

I'm looking to make the same swap on my 86. I could use that p/n. Thanks, Jeff |
There are 2 parts required for the swap: the wiper motor cover and the wiper switch. The turn signal stalk should work but it just wont have the markings for the int wiper settings. I'll look up the p/ns for you guys and post back later. |
Thanks. I've already got a new turn signal stalk w/the int wiper settings. I just need the switch and cap. -Jeff |
by wiper switch, do u mean the thing u turn to turn them on...like mine is low and high? |
The thing you turn to turn them on is what we're calling the stalk. The actual switch is in the steering coulmn, and is one of the items that must be replaced. Justin's saying you should be able to keep your Hi/Lo stalk. Or, to put it another way: You'll have to replace your wiper switch but not your turn signal/wiper/cruise lever. -Jeff |
ohhh.....thanks for clearing it up.......how hard is it to do this swap? |
The column shouldn't be hard at all. The switch shoould be just a few layers down. I dunno about the wiper motor, though. -Jeff |

one last thing.....would a haynes manual help me through this step by step? |
A manual may help, but it's not really hard to do. Just pull the wheel and remove some screws and you get down to the switch Heres the p/n's and group numbers for cars with cruise and tilt. pulse wipers RPO CD4 84-86 pulse wiper cover kit - grp 10.150 - p/n 22039684 84-89 cruise/tilt/pulse/turn sig lever - grp 2.897- p/n 25111262 84-86 pulse wiper switch w/ tilt - grp 2.459 - p/n 7843683 |
Thanks, Justin. |
