Has anyone used THIS switch with mini wiper motor??

If so how do you wire it with only 3 terminals?

You use a relay or like me no park function. Search and you'll find it's a big topic of interest.

Dan,

I found this via Google - I have NOT tried it, and have no idea whether it would work.

I've worked out something different with 2 relays - but I don't want to shout about that one yet as I haven't tested it!

Mine is a variation on this one - the diagram 3/4 of the way down the page. I re-arranged it to use earth switching, to reduce the length of the power cables to the relays and wiper (and to make the wiring simpler). The down-side is that you MUST use a car light switch - the type that goes Off - Sidelights - Sidelights + Headlights (normally listed as Off - On - On). These are common enough, not expensive, and come in all sorts of shapes and sizes.

I'll publish once I know it works!
