Paul Falabella Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Is this the correct wiper switch? All pics I see have three outlet/valves plus the actuator cable, mine has four plus the cable. There was a small cut piece of vacuum line on the switch.

Paul Falabella Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 This for sale on eBay. It looks like the one in my car. Most,if not all, pictures and diagrams show a controller with 3 outlets. Any one have a routing diagram for this?Also what size(s) and how much vacuum hose do I need for the whole job?The stuff is kind of expensive.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick5563 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Since I am only familiar with small series washers, I have to ask. Isn't there some sort of fancy washer system on the Roadmaster? A coordinator or something. They have a different washer lid from what I recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhambulldog Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) The Roadmasters shared the Cadillac's "cam-o-matic" system. Which has a variable width wiped area. I believe that the coordinator, is a 1956 feature. The coordinator turned on the wipers when the washer button was pressed.The coordinated systems do have a different lid on the jar______________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paul,The routing scheme is a mystery to me. Mine just barely work. I don't think mine are hooked up properly. I'm off work this weekend. When I venture out, this afternoon I'll get a photo of the switch Edited February 21, 2015 by bhambulldog (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Holmberg Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 The wipers parts for sale on e-bay are for 1955 ser.70 when checking the numbers to the right.Leif in Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhambulldog Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I took a look behind my dash,what I can see confirms Leif's assessment that the Ebay switch is correct.There's not much room for a camera to get a good photo Here's what I gotI don't know how to post a photo fromy phone....Anyway, as Leif says, that is the correct switch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Falabella Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 OK, anyone have a routing schematic and how much and what size hose do I need?Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhambulldog Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Here's this. It shows the "coordinator" which I believe is '56 feature. But, the other should be relevant.Sorry, it doesn't show size or length....Sorry, it doesn't show size or length....

RUDDY Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Hi everyone, I wonder which window washer jar fits the 1955 Buick Special? Can the attachment be good? I would be interested in the type, I would buy one. Maybe someone can help. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
