Question How To Disable Windshield Wiper.....

Okay when you pull the right handle, the washer fluid will shoot then wiper will go on, I would like to know how can you disable that? I only want the washer fluid to work, but not the wiper. I am planning to use it as my intercooler spray. Please help if you get my question.

Thanks

I'd recommend setting up a separate and inconspicuous switch. I'm assuming that when you spray you'll want it to continue spraying, not just spray for as long as you hold the washer...thing. Not to mention you can't wash your windshield while driving (only wipe) or shift while spraying.

i would use a momentary spst( single pull, single throw switch you can get from radio shack for a couble bucks). i'm assuming your whole idea is to use the washer pump though. i would get a seperate pump.

I have a setup off the windsheild washer line.. i put in a T and then put a valve on each end so when i'm racing i just spray the radiator and when i'm driving i can do my windshield. Look to see what is on the fuse for the windsheild wipers, if its just them or nothing important than pull the fuse, or you could hack into the power wire that goes to the wiper motor and clip it a little before it goes into that motor and hook that up to a switch so when the switch is on its the only time that the wipers can work.

Most IC sprayers run for longer than a short spray.

so your going to re-route the sprayers to the front of your intercooler? lots of work there, I'd just get a seperate pump. probably easiest... 2c.

Not really, the only problem is to disable the wipers.
