Hi Spider,
Reviving this post instead of starting another.
Have been reading your and Maddog's write ups on rewiring for self parking wipers. I started by using Maddog's method, which is simply connecting terminal 53a of the motor to a fused power source (
https://www.moke.com.au/in-the-garage/electrics/60-moke-wiper-wiring-secrets-revealed). This worked fine for one of the motors I have. However, the second motor wouldn't quite park. It tried to each sweep, but then just kept going.
I have the second motor out of the car and can watch the action of the motor parking switch as I turn the motor manually. The switch arm moves and appears to make good independent contact with the other contacts. So I am a bit reluctant to try bending the arm as my next step.
Would your method (

Cheers, Graham
P.S. Been lurking on this site for years. Going to open an In the Garage thread and introduce my Moke and I soon.
