The self parking, or limit switch, is attached to the main body of the wiper mechanism, and is operated by the large gear internally. As with the rest of my post these details are for my own vehicle, a 3500S, and may differ from your own vehicle.

It sounds like the only problem you have is with the self parking switch. On slow and fast settings the self parking switch is unused but during delay, as soon as BOTH the self parking switch and the delay governor have changed state, you are relying on the self parking switch to supply power...

I like My black cable colour with the yellow ’go faster’ stripe, but I guess other colour combos would work

Posted this solution I used a while back. works a treat and if the Mrs was using the chair then she becomes the cup holder.

They look like the ones. It’s been eight years since I did the job and can’t remember where I purchased them from now. Possibly Wins International.

Thanks for the reply. Is there a way of raising the character limit so I can edit the original post to use the alternate URL’s?

Glad you can see them!!! I guess it could be security settings on the browsers that cannot see the images (Internet Explorer is well known for it's security vulnerabilities). The picture URL's begin with http:// as opposed to the more secure https:// I did try to insert an image to this post...

I'm not sure why sometimes the pictures disappear. They are hosted on my web space and are still there. At the moment I cannot see the pictures using the Google Chrome browser but can see them using Internet Explorer or Edge as the browser??? I can also see them on my iPad!!! I tried to edit...

Just checked my iPad and no pictures showing. Next checked my work pc and did show pictures. Now I’ve checked my iPad again and they are all there. Bloomin’ computers...

Photos are hosted on my own web space and I have noticed that occasionally they disappear from this site although the original are still there. I can’t really explain it.

Glad the post is still helping others out. Can’t believe it has been nearly seven years since I posted this!!!

It’s not just me then...

Hi Terry. I modified my rev counter for electronic ignition a long time ago and I included instructions on its strip-down. RVC Tacho Conversion The strip-down instructions start about a third of the way down. Be careful on the re-assembly as there is a insulated washer in there that MUST go...

When I had my tacho apart I also used a fork to remove the hand and it worked a treat.

Still good to know it is helping others on here nearly six years on!!! I see in other posts it looks like you have a workshop manual coming? I wrote this article in the same order as the genuine Rover workshop manual, (and not the HBOL). Reason being, you would like to think that Rover knew...

Glad to hear this is still helping people to sort their wiper problems out.

If your normal slow and fast speed don't work correctly as well as the delay, then I would suspect either the main wiper switch in the car, the electrical connections on the wiper motor, or the wiper motor winding. Before even looking at the delay, I think you need to get the normal slow and...

If your normal slow and fast speed wipers work, and they park correctly, then you probably don't need to do the complete strip-down. When you switch to delay what happens? Do the wipers not even start or do they stop midway, or just don't stop? If they don't start then it's likely to be the...

Here is an expanded view after re-installation, showing the pipe connected as well. The governor sits on the wiper motor.

I wrote a thread on just this. The delay type on mine was the pneumatic. Revitalised Wiper Delay In the thread, there is also mention of the electronic delay as well from another member. If you have the unit below, then you have the electronic delay, otherwise you have the pneumatic. Here...

Hi Mike. It sounds like the only problem you have is with the self parking switch. On slow and fast settings the self parking switch is unused but during delay, as soon as BOTH the self parking switch and the delay governor have changed state, you are relying on the self parking switch to...

What is more bizarre is that the bidding was up to $2350 within 1/2 an hour of the listing starting!!! The bid placed of $2745 would have automatically bid $2350 for that eBayer. Also a bit suspect is the thirteen bids in two minutes by the same bidder at the outset, ranging from $20-$280...

Hi. Saw your page of items to sell, and would like to purchase the Ball Joint Tool if it is still available. Regards Phil

If your talking about the large main drive wheel which operates the parking switch, then I don't think it really matters. When you first apply power to the motor it will run until it gets to the parked position, and then stop (unless you manage to get it in the parked position to start with). I...

Oi! Don't knock B&Q, I work there :) But you're right, I would have just sent you to aisle 5 'Sealants and adhesives' :rolleyes:
