ive got the screenw with the wiper motor and wipers attached but i dont have the original switch...
their is only 2 wires coming out the motor so im guessing it was a variable speed switch ( i think from year 12 physics 'potentiometer' is the tech term), but im guessing i need the right switch to match the motor to get it workin at the correct speeds... what does everyone else have on their buggys?
everything dies baby, thats a fact..
maybe everything that dies one day comes back..

Think you might just have a single speeder. Mine has 4 or 5 coming out.. GND, LOW, HIGH and the contacts that open when the wipers are in the down position (so the wipers stop when they are down after you turn the switch off and for the INT control).
A potentiometer would blow up with the current from the motor.. A BIG 100W resistor could work though.

Sounds like you have a six volt motor, hope your buggy is regoed already because you need to have a "return to start" wiper for rego(and its a pain in the arse if not) I have to change the one on my manx b4 I re-rego it🙁
hmmm, now that gets a bit farkin annoyin! cos nah its not yet registered! arrggh! will have to suss it out a bit closer! arrrgh! how do i go about gettin such a switch? (i guess adapt one of a regular car)
