3-speed wiper switch resistor ??

Anyone know the specs for the external 3-speed wiper switch resistor ??

25 ohm

Thanks ... I bought ten a couple weeks ago. I was the guy that messaged you through Ebay. After you replied it took some searching but I found a batch. Now I just have to figure how to attach them keeping the leads insulated. Riveting is an option but I'd prefer that as a last resort. I'm more interested in functionality than originality - nobody's going to see the switch once installed !

By the way, I'm not intending to compete with your service - its just that the things were cheap and shipping was as much for ten as it would have been for one !

those are wire wound resistors, they look good
Use a good quality ohm meter (not a cheap one ) and check the ohms on all of them use the one that is a close to 25.0000 ohms as possible
Hopefully they are all dead on 25.000: : luck:

Just cover the leads on the resistor with heat shrink

what does the resistor do on this switch as others dont have one ?

is this what givesit the 3 speed ?

will this turn a 2 speed into a 3 speed ?

thank you !

Drops the voltage for the third speed.

yes

will this turn a 2 speed into a 3 speed ?

Not unless you can figure how to give the switch a 3rd position !!!!
The guts are different too.
