I am having the same issue today.  There are four prongs on the back of the two speed switch and a 4 circuit female terminal from the harnss.  The switch and the harness will not plug up.  Which of the posts on the switch plug into the connector from the harness.

I think the plug is the same from 2-3spd wiper switches.   :2cents:

Can you match the connector pin #s to the switch terminal #s?

Thanks,

Daniel

I am looking at a 2-speed switch and a variable speed switch from a 70-71 and I can see that terminals are in the same locations so a plug would work on either.  It looks to me like the plug you have isn't the right one.  I am also looking at a '72 style 2-speed switch.  It also has a different arrangement for the terminals.

I got the previously posted picture from moparts last night, trying to remember how this configuration is.  I have two 70 dashes with harnesses, (One I am wiring for the challenger and the second is out of my cuda with the switches unplugged.  Both have the same style switch and connector) and I can't get them to plug in.  I think they match the picture that I posted.  The posted picture came from a link on moparts...

I will try to take pictures of my actual wiper switch and connector, but I am 99% sure that it matches what I already posted.

Thanks,

Daniel

Neil,

Switch pin 3 is low and connector pin A is high in the configuration.  This is what is causing me grief.

you may have to move a wire or two in the plug

I must have been too tired the night before last, because last night I figured it out.

C-2
B-1
D-3

Terminal 4 on the switch is not used.  This is the only possible way this can work.  Since I have the 2-speed set-up, the 4th wire is not used, the best I can tell.   :biggrin:

Thanks,

Here is a picture of the switch with the connector.  One of the switch terminals is not used, but is common with one of the other switch terminals.
