81Chero Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Getting ready to sell my 88 Comanche, fixing little things and did a tilt column swap from a 88 Cherokee and NOW it only has med and high speeds for the wiper. The other 'stock' column only had intermittent and high..? Things like this is why I can't stand wiring.. What would be different? The stalk (?) has the controller IN IT, or the wiper motor itself? Is there a wiper relay that could be affecting it? Also, what I found when I got home with it was that the orig Comanche column's ignition switch utilized a PUSH rod whereas the TILT Cherokee uses a pull rod in the switch. I had to swap all the guts from both switches down on the column to make it work (well, it did for a couple days. Then something happened that it won't pull it far enough to start..?) I've got to pull the wheel off, horn ring etc to find out what's not letting it pull as needed. (yes, I've adjusted the switch itself..) But it's my daily and can't be down for more than a few hours it seems. Can't have something break or ______ and leave me stranded. Any help is always appreciated Errol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue88Comanche Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Under the dash directly below the steering column there should be a black box with Velcro on it. that is the intermittent control box. it is possible to by pass by connecting the plugs directly and excluding the wiper module. Check to see if it is still there, its possible it was overlooked when you swapped steering columns. those boxes are also temperamental i have 6 that don't work....

HOrnbrod Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 As stated, for intermittent wipers you need the wiper delay module box (just plugs in the harness under the column), a multifunction stalk w. the delay feature, and a wiper switch (p/n 56000032) w. the intermittent wiper feature. Perhaps you new tilt column is missing one or more of these parts. The non-intermittent wiper switch will not work as the internal switches are different and there are not enough wires for the intermittent function. You need seven wires to the delay module for intermittent wipers. http://comancheclub.com/topic/10635-switching-to-intermittent-wipers/?hl=intermittent&do=findComment&comment=101686 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81Chero Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 Aw poop.. I probably left that at the 'yard'. I was soo excited that I found a 88 with a tilt that I didn't even think. I'll see if its' under my dash. Thanks again especially for the pics. E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
