Mark Maras Posted June 23, 2023 Share #3 Posted June 23, 2023 Perhaps a method to improve the original Z wipers? They certainly needed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Obvious Posted June 24, 2023 Share #4 Posted June 24, 2023 Well, clearly the obvious answer would be using that module to replace the original module, but I don't think that's it. TOO obvious, even for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Obvious Posted June 24, 2023 Share #5 Posted June 24, 2023 I mean, after all... The biggest improvement you could make to the original system would be to come up with an easy way to get variable speed intermittents, but that module has a fixed 7 second delay and would be no better than what we already have.

It doesn't have to be an improvement. It just has to work. I know of at least 3 Z cars in my area that are having problems because the amplifier failed. Since the original is NLA, if I can get this to work, people will have functional wipers. I have looked at other intermittent relays, but this will probably be the best way to work with existing wiring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Head Posted June 24, 2023 Share #7 Posted June 24, 2023 I have the wiring diagram for one of these. It has about eight positions. I don't know much about them except that the wiper motor must be getting a lot of amps on high speed based on how fast the blades move.. They're fast. Actually the ancient Z motor and mechanism would probably hold you back on upgrading the system. Are you going to design a simple harness to make it plug and play? Looks like fun. https://www.ebay.com/itm/265485270180?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=pCKhnAvpQCe&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
