1979 ezgo wiper contact removal ?
Hi to the group,
How do I get the old wiper contact out to replace it ? First time poster, but I appreciate the depth of knowledge on this board I'm restoring an 1979 EZGO and have had success so far. It's running with new batts and (mostly) new cables. 2 out of 3 new tires and new solenoid and key switch. Cosmetically it's a 3 out of 10, but some Camo paint should bring it up to 6. While going through the wiring I found a crumbling cable with turns out to be the "Wiper contact" Looks like a cable to me, cant hurt to replace it, right ? So, I order the part and it seems to match the pre 1982 format. I managed to get the first (outside) nut off and I thought it would be a simple matter to pull the cable/contact and replace with new part and reassemble in reverse order. HOWEVER, no luck removing the old part, I tugged gently then not so gently, applied pt blaster/liquid wrench, turned inside-most nut, but no go. I'm guessing that the contact end of the part has been peened over (mushroomed) so it won't slide out. If I removed the armature that holds the contact/cable against the studs I might be able to punch it out, but that looks like a big can of worms Not a lot of wrench room around this part and I'm trying to avoid further tear down. So, any ideas ? Help is greatly appreciated Thanks in advance Bert |
