69/70 Help wire wiper switch resistance cable please...

[K9COP]

Guys, almost done with the complete rewire. Can anyone help me with what I do with the 'resistance cable' on the back of the wiper switch please? One end is in the old multi-plug that goes onto the switch. the wire comes off the 'horizontal' terminal in the picture, and the diagram shows the other end bridging to a terminal on the back of the switch, but there aren't any there... any ideas?






Thanks,

that's a new one on me...never seen it before...this is the first I have heard of this

Right, me too. It's twinned out of the back of the plug on the same terminal as the red wire, so I guess I have to do something with it. It's not on my spare loom at all.... 

Thanks,

your switch pictured does not have that extra terminal at the lower right hand corner like it shows in the wiring diagram

[K9COP]

That's kind of my point, where does it go to?

wondering now if your switch is a 2 speed and the wiring diagram is a 3 speed circuit?

personally, I would not worry about it

[K9COP]

Could well be. I'll terminate the wire and insulate it so it's out of harms way.

Thanks,

Yep two speed switch and diagram for three speed

Nice. Thanks guys. I traced the wire in my spare/old loom, and it takes (roughly) the path shown in green below out of the back of the wiper switch, then along the green line, and ending in a single female spade terminal (which I guess would go onto the 'missing' terminal on the switch..), so I guess with the length of it, it would make sense for it to have some resistance....

Thanks again,
