130—ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CHRYSLER SERVICE MANUAL
e. Installing New Pivot (Fig. 41)
Install new gasket and pivot. The pivot retain-
ing plate should be installed under dash. In-
stall Belleville washers on cap screws so that
convex surface is against head of bolt. The use
and proper installation of washers is important.
These washers can take up to .015 inch slack
as bolt torque is reduced by the gasket taking
a permanent set.
Install retaining bolts and washers and tight-
en 75 inch-pounds torque. This is important to
insure proper tension on Belleville washers and
to reduce possibility of water leak occurring at
this point. Install wiper blade.
f. Installation of Windshield Wiper Motor
Bracket and Link Assembly
Work links up behind dash panel and attach
to pivot crank pins. Install brass spacing wash-
er and lock clips on pivot crank pins. Make sure
wiper bracket to dash panel rubber gasket is in
place. Install windshield wiper motor and
bracket assembly. Tighten retaining nuts to 10
± sq. foot-pounds torque. Do not tighten too
tightly. Otherwise, rubber gasket will be com-
pressed excessively and permit transmission of
wiper noise.
Install fresh air door and adjust. If neces-
sary, adjust wiper parking position by moving
cam adjustment lever which projects from
switch cover. Connect four lead wires from
wiper motor to wiper control switch (Fig. 34),
as follows: BLUE wire to "P" terminal on con-
trol switch; BLACK wire to "A" terminal on
control switch; RED wire to "F-l" terminal
on control switch, and YELLOW wire to "F-2"
terminal on control switch. The hot lead (RED)
wire from fuel gauge is attached to circuit
breaker.
ELECTRIC WINDOW LIFTS
The three component parts in basic circuit are
circuit breaker, motor, and switch (Figs. 42 and
43).
There is no relay, and switch carries full
amperage load of motor.
The power window lift motors have an in-
dividual, built in circuit breaker. All models,
except four door special, use one 20 amp. cir-
cuit breaker on left cowl side to protect wiring
to both front and rear motors. The four door
special uses one 30 amp. circuit breaker for
same purpose. Four switches are used to con-
trol window lifts—a master switch located on
left front door, and an individual door switch
for each of other doors. The individual switch
feeds are brought out to circuit breaker on cowl
side.
The harness for right rear door is carried
along in back of front seat in floor pan. The
harness for right door is carried across upper
firewall. The motors require no lubrication. In
motor wiring, the top lead ( the W/S opening
ne nearest coupling) is used to raise window,
and bottom lead is used to lower window. When
operating a window, normal amperage draw is
12 to 16 amperes for all cars, except rear doors
of four-door Nassau, Newport and St. Regis
models which draw approximately 18 to 22
ampere. This will vary with voltage.

REMOVAL OF WINDOW LIFT
Disconnect battery and remove garnish mold-
ing. Remove door handle control, escutcheon
plate, arm rest, and window lift control switch.
Remove door trim panel and disconnect wires
from motor. Remove clips from regulator pins
which hold lower glass channel.
Raise glass manually and prop glass in up
position. Raise glass before loosening cap screws
so that it is out of working area. Remove four
regulator to door attaching cap screws and
pivot guide retaining pin. Lower motor and
regulator assembly through opening in door.
If gear box is to be replaced, remove regulator
counter-balance spring before removing unit.
The counter-balance spring has approximately
220 degrees of wrap. Use large pair of pliers
when removing. Be sure to remove spring be-
fore disassembling gear box. This is important!
The gear box, which is replaced as an as-
sembly, consists of worm and worm gear. The
worm gear drives a pinion which is meshed
with regulator sector gear. The gear box is
lubricated at assembly and should not require
further lubrication. Use MOPAR Lubriplate,
105 light-weight on all other moving parts.
