1960 And 1961 Owners Please Help
As some of you may know, I volunteered to help member twouvakind determine the changes necessary to make his windshield wiper delay work with the '60-'66 trucks. I have sorted through the wiring and wiper switches for the '62-'66 years, but I need help in confirming the wiring on the '60 and '61 trucks. I have a cab with wiring, that I believe is a '61 (VIN tag is gone) and a corresponding wiper switch. This seems to be about the only change to the wiper wiring. I am having trouble finding a '60 and '61 locally to confirm my suspicion that the '60 and '61 both have the same wiper wiring. So I was hoping some of you guys with '60's and '61's could take a peek at your wiper switch wiring and let me know if yours looks the same or similar to the pics below.
[IMG][/IMG] And here are a couple pics of the wiper switch. This one happens to be a 2 speed with the washer. [IMG][/IMG] I also learned something in doing all this research on the wiper motors and switches. I used to think that '63 was the first year for the 2 speed and washer option. That is not so, they were available in at least '61 and '62. I have not confirmed if it was available in '60. So if one of you has a '60 with the 2 speed wipers and washer, please post up.

Re: 1960 And 1961 Owners Please Help
Don't know if it helps any CaptanFab, but the kick panels w/cables should be 60-61, so I think your right on the year. Also....my 2 speed switch and wiper motor were supposedly pulled from a 62 and I have the same switch as posted above. Im just missing the wiring harness, so can't help there.

Re: 1960 And 1961 Owners Please Help
Thanks for the confirmation VonDog. I was hoping that the '60 wiring was the same as the '61 wiring

Thanks for the reply chevy_man5. Yes the white wire is the correct one.

Re: 1960 And 1961 Owners Please Help
Yep, the '60-'63's all seem to have just the white wire for the single speed wipers

Re: 1960 And 1961 Owners Please Help
Captain,
I have a '61 Chevy standard package and I confirmed that it has the original 2 speed wiper motor. No washer. Did you get your pic you needed or is this enough?

Re: 1960 And 1961 Owners Please Help
My main objective with this thread was to confirm that both the '60 and '61 with the 2 speed wipers and washers, have the same switch and wiring as in the pics that I posted in post #1. This is in a effort to help member twouvakind with his installation instructions for the wiper delay that he is making for the '60-'66 trucks. Thanks for your input.
