Need a new Wiper Motor assembly for 1968 series IIA

[Get_rad]

Hey All,

I need my 1968 Series 2 to get through the Road worthy but to do so it needs at least one wiper. Right now I have nothing and was wondering if someone has some advise on where I can get one quickly.

Thanks!

Individual wiper motor each side ?

If so there's a guy on the Facebook Series Group that restores them.I'm not on Facebook so can't help with his contact details.

One Gromit mentioned will get you out of trouble.

Thanks guys, I have looked there but I need the Wiper arm too and it looks like they don’t have it. Do you think the Series 3 wiper arm will work on this?

They have the Wiper blade and Wiper Wheelbox. Can you tell me if thats all I need or if im forgetting something.

If you need a 'wheelbox' you need the later type which are cable operated rather than individual motors ?

If cable operated you probably need to find someone parting a vehicle out so that you can get the wiper motor, cable, wheelboxes etc.
Worth contacting allfourx4 to see if they have the cable, motor & gearbox but it's likely to be expensive.

Here's another supplier Land Rover Parts - WINDSCREEN WIPER - SERIES LAND ROVER (https://www.britishautoparts.com.au/windscreen_wiper___series_land_rover)
No cable listed but I found cables in the UK.

For the later, cable operated wiper on the 2a, wipers are interchangeable with Series 3.

Later S3 were two speed so wiring and switch is different. There were two different wiper motors fitted to 2a, but they are interchangeable, although you will have to be a bit creative about changing the mount if you have the wrong one.

Thanks all.

Was a bit confused on the wheel box but realised it wasn’t needed.

Parts are ordered. Thanks for the advice guys.

Got the wiper motor and parts in the mail today. Instead of me getting creative on wiring this thing my own way. I’m wondering if someone has pictures of how it’s originally wired.

I was thinking I just run it off the ignition and have an inline fuse just in case. However, it would be easier if someone has the heart to take some pics of theirs so that it’s done right the first time that would be super helpful and appreciated.

Thanks guys

Well, that was actually pretty straightforward, only thing I can recommend in case someone else reads this. Is to make sure you buy the wiper arm splined drum. Otherwise you wont be able to connected the wiper arm.

I've got a 75633B wiper motor. This is a single speed motor but I'm buggered if I know which wires go where?
I seem to keep blowing the fuse in the fuse box.
Is this similar to your motor and how did you wire it? I should mention that my car is a 1960 Series 2 with the slightly more modern wiper motor.
