Adding delay to wipers

Mike Rocket J. Squirrel Elliott 12 March 2005 02:20:37
 I wanted to add delay ("intermittent operation") to the Wonderbus's
windshield wipers. The Wonderbus has a 12V system, with 2-speed wipers
and dash-mounted switch. I purchased and assembled a Velleman wiper
delay kit, soldered the bits onto the circuit board, and wired it in and
Hey Presto! I now have three delay settings in addition to the original
slow/fast settings.

I have posted two .pdf files (you'll need the free Adobe Reader software
to view them) showing the stock wiper wiring, and the modified wiper
wiring with details about the kit itself and how I mounted it at:

http://users.adelph­ia.net/~elliottfamil­y/Wonderbus/Modified­_71_Bus_Wiper.pdf

I can't confirm that it would work with other wiper wiring versions, but
a glance at the three flavors of wiper wirings posted at Speedy Jim's
website (http://www.nls.net­/mp/volks/htm/elec.h­tm) suggests that this
modification will work with the steering column-mounted 12V, 2-speed
version without any modification.

I reckon that it could be made to work with the 6V 1-speed version with
a little rewiring, and replacing the 12V relays on the kit board with 6V
ones.

Hi Mr.Rocket!

Not to be picky, rater curious whether it is the same brand, should it
read: Welleman?

And a tip on PDF, I too thought it was a properitary Adobe standard,
after entering the OSX world I learned it was not so!

All the best.

 Thanks for the info. I have two different wiper delays... The one that's on
there now never stops the wipers in park position. If it wasn't so much
work, I'd try the other one and see if it does any better. If only I could
fit into the position I need to in order to reach all that stuff! An extra
elbow going the other way would be helpful!
