ignition and wiper switch removel

Post by bbfhnj »

I need to know how to remove the ignition and wiper switch. i did a search but could only find info on the headlight switch. btw this is a 69 f100.

and this is off topic but is the wood trim around these knobs and the choke cable and knob worth anything? i dont need it anymore because i'm going efi and i'm moving the cargo light switch over to mount a megasquirt display in that panel. i also have a hanline cluster with autometer sportcomp guages.

Removing the ignition switch is easy, grab hold of the chrome bezel, disconnect the plug from the switch and unscrew the bezel from the ignition switch itself. I don't remember how to remove the wiper switch though :hmm:, but I'm sure someone else on here does.

the wiper knob is held on with a allen screw. then you take a bezel removal tool and remove th center nut from inside the bezel. the ignition switch also should have a bezel tool to remove it. or you can use more common tools to remove those bezel and nuts. screw drivers and a hammer to get the ignition started. or a pair of neddle nose pliers for the wiper switch nut. be careful with the srcwdriver and hammer. it can slip and mark up the ignition switch bezel.
