Haven'tgot to drive my truck over 5 miles, but when I installed the turn signal switch in the column I turned the wipers on and noticed they don't park, no delay and they seem to just have 1 speed. I haven't had time to ck it out yet, any ideas? Would the delay module do this?

I had that happen once. It was after my tach install and I broke the little cover that goes on behind the multifunction stalk. I thought my new wiper motor had failed already. But it turned out that the dimmer rod or something was shorting out on the switch wiring.

So if you just put a turn signal switch in it, I'd say the problem might be in the column.

I do need another handle, or whatever its called. That would make sense, thing is I'd never tried them before. Thanks for the info, I'll check it out.

You could have just pinched a wire in there when you had it apart.

I ordered a new turn signal arm or stem, mines in bad shape anyway, I got to go back to the junk yard I found and get the later 4 spoke steering wheel, so when I change all this out I'll check it out then.
