My windshield wipers have been on a toggle since I got the truck, and have recently been trying to freshen the truck up, could anyone tell me where the wires go in order for my wipers to work properly again, all I have is a stub of wires coming from the motor. :\

I'd suggest getting to a wrecker and looking at one there maybe clipping the headlight switch n so forth the needed items and parts etc.

I don't know that I can do that, all of the wiring seems to be there except the windshield wiper motor has all the wires cut about 4 inches down and there are no traces of where the other ends are, should be, or anything. And OBS trucks are rare junkyard finds here.

Get some pics of what you need...or at least where you need stuff..and I'll see if there is something to help with...:D

Is the wiper control switch on the steering column? There is a wiper control module relay some where.

Switch is on the steering column, all the wires are there to it, relay is under the glove box, it clocks when I fiddle with the switch, So I know the power goes as far as that, but I don't know what happened to the wiring from there to the motor, there are dead ends on the motor, but I don't see where the other dead ends are. Im on an iPad and cant upload pics directly, I'll find a way to upload in a couple seconds.

Wish i had seen this BEFORE i left for work this morning... I wont be home again until friday around2am... if you havent fixed the problem by then i have the wiper wiring diagram. If you tell me what color your wires are i can check the wiring on the bronco, altho its an 89, with half of a 90 F250 wiring harness so the colors might not match up. But i think the wiring diagram i have is listed from 87-96.

Check agnems photo albums out, he has wiring diagrams, altho i think his are for 86... i could be wrong.

google broncolinks and go to that site, look up the wiring diagram for wipers for your generation. The bronco and F series had the same common (lights, wipers, radio, all that jazz) wiring, might be able to get yourself re-wired up in no time flat.

Figured it out. Good old rat nest problem, just the rat nest was missing and the leftovers were hidden on the other side of the firewall behind the dash.
