[TR] TR3 wiper motor

[wbeech at flash.net]

Frank,
I went through a lot of pictures when I rebuilt mine last year and don't
recall any with the park wire running externally.  They all went through the
housing and out the little hole as you describe.  Can you friend be sure
that his is the original motor to the car?

Subject: [TR] TR3 wiper motor

looking at a wiper motor rebuild for my buddy.
his car is late TR3 1962ish
all
of the wiper motors i have seen have the red wire that goes to the round
circle thing (that controls the park placement) come out of the body of the
wiper motor on its right side as you look at it from the front of the car.
his
red wire is very long and looks like it has to come out of the motor on the
left side where the hot wires connect to.. the red wire is considerably
longer than mine on TS41366.
i cant find a hole on the right side of the assembly to route the red wire
through.
was this a later modification?
motor was already
in pieces when it was entrusted to me to rebuild.

also when replacing the
bushes. the new bushes have small "V" groves cut in them.
groves to the
commutator or to the housing?
if groves to the commutator are they parallel or perpendicular to the groves
of the commutator?

thanks Frank
