PNJSNAK---things I learned in this process--

1) you need a Lucas part #35927 wiper switch, it has an internal park control

2) you need to seperate the "hot" leads from the switch and the motor, other wise they have a tendency to not work right---don't have the motor and the switch going to the same fused lead or ganged together.

3) As Wilf and Steve pointed out the wipers will never work right without the Lucas switch

4)You might have the same problem I encountered---the wiper motor "hot" lead is either disconnected or is sharing the same power source as the switch if you have the Lucas switch.

5)Paitence----it helps when you are ready to scream $#!t and start throwing tools

I can disconnect my battery switch, turn it on and the wipers will cycle and park, turn the car power on the wipers do the same. So far my electrical life is good

If you are only running a off-on-on toggle switch your wipers will not work right.----the Lucas wiper switch is the key it controls the park function internally.


Thanks to all for helping me figure this one out and Jim, hope this makes sense
