1972 Vette

[HLaari]

Hi
I bought a 72 Vette last year, so i’m a new Vette owner & new to CCF. Would anyone know what I should do regarding the cover over my wiper blades? When I start the engine, the cover opens up without me touching the washer/wiper switch. It stays open or up even after I turn the engine off & I have to manually push it down. I know it functions off vacuum. Anyone know what to check? Thanks

Welcome to the forum HLaari.

Nice looking Corvette. Can't help with your issue but I am sure someone can point you in the right direction.

The wiper door is controlled by vacuum so I would start by looking for a vac line that is loos or broken. If I recall from my '72 vacuum holds the door closed and lack of vacuum would cause it to open. I'm sure others that have the similar model will chime in

Thanks, it’s what I always wanted!

Okay thanks! I’ll start there! Cheers!
