12
volt dc motor and
a
gear box section
containing
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

and
switch assembly,
is
located in the gear
box"
section and controls the starting and stopping of the wiper
through
a
latching mechanism (fig. 92).

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

FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKER
A circuit breaker in the light control switch protects
the headlamp circuit, thus eliminating one fuse. A
separate circuit breaker protects the power window,
seat and top circuits. On Corvettes the headlamp motor
circuit is also protected by a separate circuit breaker.
Where current load is too heavy, the circuit breaker
rapidly opens and closes, protecting the circuit until
the cause is found and eliminated.
louses located in the Fuse Panel under the instrument panel are:
Wiper (Chevrolet, Chevelle, and "F" Car) 3AF/AGC 20 Amp.
Back-up Lamp and Gauges. . . 3AG/AGC 10 Amp.
