1987 245 DL wipers not working
I have a 1987 240 DL wagon. Everything about it is inspection worthy except i can't get the wipers to work. Here are the things i've managed to figured out.
1.) I've replaced the motor with a new one. 2.) I've bought and installed a new switch. (it wasn't exactly the same as the one i replaced but the dealer said it would work on all 240 models). 3.) I've made sure that I have a 16 amp fuse in the proper place. 4.) I've made sure that the motor is well grounded. I also have noted that every time I would put the old switch in the down position it blew the fuse. All i can think of now is that I am going to have to figure out how to find a bad wire through the fire wall or something. I'd love to DIY this and don't want to give up yet. If you have any suggestions that would be awesome! Thanks! |
Can you see if you're getting power at the wiper motor?

Power
I have a volt meter and have checked the four prong power connector to the wiper motor. When I tested it with the old switch two of the four prongs had power to it but the other two did not. When i put the switch on low there wasn't power to any of them. I didn't try that with the new switch, I will though and let you know.
