Let's step back one or two steps.

I manufacture a 2 speed electric motor conversion using an EK base plate and the 2 arms from the back of said motor.
The price is $80 with a changeover.
I have in stock 1 only complete 2 speed motor which is for sale without tradein for $95
Al has indictaed he would like this one.
However I can do more motors with a trade in of a complete EK wiper motor
Conditions are:
EK motor must be a PRESLITE motor.
Postage is paid by the buyer


Regards   Ken

Ken,

If Al does not take the motor I will as i do not have any motors to exchange.

Sorry Ken !!!!! I will take that motor now I know it's the 2 speed version.  I will bring the 2x EK wiper motors down with me at easter. Thankyou Ken                                                                PS   too many 16hr shifts aren't too good for an old f$#t like me I don't know whether I comeing or going.                            Cheers Al

Good news for me.  I looked through a box of goodies which came with the car and found 2 EK motors one with the arms and one with out.  Just got to see if they go.

Wicked , Good on ya for letting us know how , Parts may be a little scarce now though , If someone is keen to tell us any other ideas with later model compaonents Id be keen to get the headstart.

VN wiper motor.
motor may hang down or base can be drilled to suit original style position.

fits into EK base too.  EK wiper linkage must be modded to fit tapered splined shaft of VN motor.

switch any positive 2 step switch or I used a 2 position negative earth switch with relays with momnetary on.

Cheers
