DEPRESSED PARK 2-SPEED WIPER

CHEVROLET

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Type "C" two speed electric wiper assembly (fig.

74) incorporates a depressed park type (blades park

against windshield lower molding when the motor is

turned off) motor and gear train. The wiper has a com-

pound wound 12 volt motor and a gear box section con-

taining the gear mechanism and relay control. The motor

armature is fitted with a worm gear which drives the

main gear assembly and crank arm.

The relay control, consisting of a relay coil, relay

armature and switch assembly, is located in the gear box
section bid controls the starting and stopping of the wiper

through a latching mechanism (fig. 75).

An electric washer pump is mounted on the gear box

section of the wiper and is driven by the wiper unit gear

assembly (fig* 75).

The overhaul procedures for the wiper are broken down

into three major areas: The motor section, gear box

section and washer pump section. Each section maybe

serviced independently of the other.

77).

5.
Straighten
out the 4
tabs that secure the brush plate

to the field coil retainers (fig. 77).

CAUTION:
Be
careful
not to

If new field and case assembly is being installed,

splice the black and black with pink stripe leads of

the new field with the corresponding leads of the

wiper.

2.
Install the rubber thrust disc, steel thrust disc and

felt lubricating washer in the case assembly bearing

4.
Assemble armature in the case and field assembly.

5.
Position the partially assembled brush plate over the

armature shaft far enough to allow re-assembly of

the remaining brush in its brush holder;- then position

the brush plate assembly on the mounting tabs in the

position shown in Figure 78.

NOTE: Circuit breaker ground lead will not

reach circuit breaker terminal if brush plate is

positioned wrong.

6. Center the brush plate mounting holes over the

mounting tabs and bend the tabs toward the brush

holders as required to secure the brush plate in

position.

CAUTION: Be sure tabs are centered in brush

plate mounting holes.

7.
Remove brush retainer clips and resolder circuit

breaker ground lead to circuit breaker. Refer to

Figure

8. If new case and field assembly'is used, scribe a line

on it in the same location as the one scribed on the

old case. This will insure proper alignment of the

new case with the scribed line made on the housing

(Step
1
under Brush Plate Removal).

9. Position armature worm shaft inside the housing and,

using the scribed reference marks, line up as near

WIPER ASSEMBLY REPAIRS

The overhaul procedures for the wiper are broken down

into three major areas: The motor section, gear box

section and washer pump section. Each section may be

serviced independently of the other.

MOTOR SECTION

Disassembly

1.
Remove the two motor tie bolts.

2.
Remove the armature end-play adjusting screw (fig.

91).

3.
Strike the steel case lightly with a mallet to partiaUy

loosen it from the die casting housing and motor

field.

4.
Insert a tool through the armature adjusting screw

opening and push against the end of the armature

shaft to back off the case. This will retain the ar-

mature commutator in position between the brushes

until ready to separate the armature from the case.

5.
To separate armature from case while still retaining

the brush springs and brushes in place fashion a

spring similar to that shown in Figure 95 and insert

behind the brush leads as shown.
Fig.
95 - Retaining Armature Brushes

6. Pull the armature out of the case and remove the felt

washer, thrust plate, and rubber thrust disc from the

case assembly bearing as required.

7.
The field windings are pressed into the gear housing

and further disassembly is not recommended; how-

ever, the field leads may be unsoldered from the

brush holders to remove the case.

8. Clean and inspect all parts.

Inspect both the field and armature for damage

due to overheating such as unsoldered electrical

connections.

Check that brush leads are firmly attached both

to the brushes and their connections at the brush

holders.

Check brushes for wear. If brushes are worn to

within 3/16" of brush lead, or pigtail, they should be

replaced.

Check contacts of circuit breaker shown at top of

Figure 95. Clean as required or file lightly to re-

move irregularities.

Inspect all leads from the brush and circuit

breaker plate for worn insulation or tjreaks.

If it was determined by inspection that brush re-

placement was required, proceed as follows:

a. Remove retainer installed during disassembly and

remove brush springs.

b.
Place a hot soldering iron against*brush lead con-

nection on brush holders, remove old bushes, and

nection on brush holders, remove old brushes,

and install new brushes.

c. To reinstall brushes in holders, compress spring

within holder and hold fully compressed with a

thin instrument inserted through the slot in the

brush holder. Then push brush into holder with

lead upward to project through slot in holder, hold
