About Wiper Motor Switchs

The Chevrolet wiper motor switch connects power from the car's battery to the motor winding to start the wiper motor spinning and controls the flow of current to the wiper motor. The wiper motor switch is responsible for starting and stopping the wiper motor and selecting and regulating the speed. 

The driver can decide at what speed the wipers move, usually from a choice of three speeds, depending on the weather conditions. The driver can operate the wipers by selecting the desired speed on the wiper switch stalk, which is usually mounted on the steering column. This activates the Chevrolet wiper motor switch, which operates with a wiper motor relay. When the wiper motor switch is activated by the driver via the controls on the wiper stalk switch, an electric current is sent to the wiper motor and the copper motor winding picks up this current, causing the electricity to move through the winding. The electricity moving through the copper wire creates a circular magnetic field. It is this magnetic energy which generates the force to power the cylinder and makes it spin. The spinning cylinder creates the energy needed to power the motor which in turn powers the wiper mechanism.

The wiper motor switch operates with a wiper motor relay which opens or closes the circuit. The wiper motor relay uses an electromagnet to mechanically operate the wiper motor switch. The relay is made up of a coiled wire which is attached to a strong magnetic base, such as iron, which generates a magnetic field when the electric current flows through it, which activates the wiper motor switch and either opens or closes the connection. The relay has a hinged mechanism which enables the switch to move, which either starts or stops the current to the motor. When the wipers have been set to the off position on the wiper stalk switch, the wiper motor switch is designed to interrupt the flow of current from the battery to the motor.  The wiper motor switch controls the levels or voltage of the current flowing to the motor, to enable the different speed settings which can be chosen by the driver. When a slow or medium speed setting is selected by the driver, when the motor has reached the necessary speed for the chosen setting, the wiper motor switch, with the mechanism of the motor relay, activates or deactivates according to the rotating speed of the motor. The windscreen wiper arms are programmed to automatically return to the park position when the wipers have been switched to off, which means they will not obstruct the driver's view when not in use. The controller for intermittent wiper mode is often built into the wiper motor switch. 

Car electrical switches will slowly wear out over time and will last only a certain number of years before they will need replacing. If the wiper motor switch is not working it is worth checking to see if it is just a matter of some loose wires that need tightening. If this doesn't sort the problem it is likely that the switch is broken. Buying a Chevrolet wiper motor switch will ensure you get a part that will be compatible with the make and model of your vehicle.

Chevrolet trivia

• If anyone ever tells you that they own a 2006 Silverado Intimidator SS, there's a good chance that they're telling porky pies. This is considered to be the rarest of all Chevy trucks and was built to honour the memory of Dale Earnhardt. He died during the 2001 Daytona 500, and only 1,333 were ever sold to the general public.
• When it comes to stock car racing, it's hard to beat Chevrolet. As of 2015, they became the most successful manufacturer in the history of NASCAR, with 749 race wins and a staggering 38 manufacturer's championships.
• The Chevy is one of the most popular cars in the world, and Chevrolet took part in their 100th anniversary by embracing their popularity., They created online playlists of the hundreds of songs that feature Chevy cars, with tracks by Prince, Bon Jovi, Don Mclean, Elton John, and many, many more.
• The weirdest Chevrolet experiment was the Chevrolet Turbo Titan II in 1965. This was the same year as the first US spacewalk, and the car has a real space theme happening. Most bizarrely, it didn't have a steering wheel and instead had two large dials so that it looked more like a games console controller or DJ desk than a car.
• There's a version of the Corvette that is very different from its counterparts. The Corvette Grand Sport is much lighter than traditional designs, but the car was built at a time when General Motors were stopping projects. Only five of the cars were made, and the hefty price tag of £6-8 million means that they are all in the hands of private collectors.
