WTB: Hella 91/56 12 V Relay

[Sal Savino]

Looking for a Hella 91/56 12 V, 3-prong relay shown in attached picture (or equivalent) for my 1968 2002 wipers (system is high/low speed, no delay),

Thank you

[Mike Self]

That's the wash/wipe relay--what turns the wipers on--and off--after you pull the "wash" lever on the right side of the steering column.  Yours isn't working, so that's why the wipers aren't coming on, just the washer.

 

They've been NLA for a number of years, but one of the FAQ guys found a MOPAR interior light delay relay that works perfectly in replacement, and if you're looking for authenticity, you can fit the MOPAR relay inside the original can once you've removed its guts.

 

PM me and I'll send you Dave's writeup...I have a '69 so have kept the information just in case.  

 

cheers

Mike- can you share the mopar relay part with me, or post it here for all to see.  I'm missing my relay on y '69 1600 cabriolet.

@Mikepelly Search Mopar 2889565 on Google.  I may have an original one as a spare, but in Europe until Monday.

I ordered the Mopar part and it works.  The 15 second delay seems a bit long, but I'm impressed by this discovery.  The part is cheap!
