 Dimmer Switch/Wipers I just read the conversation about the headlight problem and it reminded me of one of the mods I did years ago and had forgotten about. I installed a dimmer switch in the windshield wiper wiring so I would have intermitent wipers. Works great and I use it all the time. A shade tree mod! Mounted it near HL dimmer. Wipers can be stopped in any position. Very simple; dimmer switch goes on the hot wire to wiper switch. Dash switch is left on Hi or Lo.

Re: Dimmer Switch/Wipers Sounds interesting; however, it seems like a lot of effort when you can replace the stock EB wiper switch with the intermittent wiper switch from almost any '80-90s Ford or Jeep, simple plug in installation. And they cost like $10 at the U-pull.
