I am probably asking for alot but ... do you have a pick ?
I have to make sure I get the correct pin locations
Why are they so hard to find.
What would you be looking at... for price.
Thanks

It came out of my '63 so it is correct.
I'll try to shoot you a picture or two tomorrow when I go back to the shop.
Price?
I don't know.
I'm really expensive, but we'll work something out. 8)
If its something you can use, you tell me what its worth to you, but lets wait and see if its what you need.

My 1963 switch only has 4 pins on the switch.
Are you sure you're looking for the right one?
I'll post a picture tonight.
Personally, I'd look for a later model two speed with a delay module. Lots of info in hints and tricks.

I need to be educated here... hoping you can...
I have owned my truck for 30 + years and still learning
I am confused, my truck has a
5 pin wiper switch and from what I have read so far,
this switch is for a single speed motor.
I stripped a 63 ford unibody donor truck years ago (maybe it was not a 63, but it was a unibody and they only made those for 2 years if memory serves me correctly)
The switch on that truck is a 3 pin
Therefore my problem is this...
To me common sense tells me that 3 pin would be for single speed and 5 pin for 2 speed wiper control.
This is my question to you, I need clarification
FYI - my truck is a 63 unibody / custom cab edition
I appreciate your input on this

Holy crap Paul I think you've just awakened the past
sorry for the language, but as previously mentioned i've owned this truck for over 30 years
- at one point I swapped out my washer fluid container and all components for the other system that was in the donor truck, which consists of a bag for the fluid and a foot pump on the floor of the cab
I must have done this cause the pump for the fluid had stopped functioning but I still had functioning wipers (this swap was done over 20 years ago.. It just came back to me now
But I still need a to know if it was a
single or
two speed wiper system
... and I still need a 5 pin switch
