Windshield washer pump
 

I just swapped out my washer pump with a new one from Brothers. The old one was beyond repair. The problem is now when I turn on my wipers the pump comes on and stays on until I turn the wipers off. I do not have wiper delay just two speed motor. Why is the pump pumping when the wiper motor is on? Followed the directions which is very simple. Any ideas? Oh, its a '73 model if that helps.
Thanks

The mechanism is really dumb and over complicated. There are a Schwack of stupid moving parts in there that can stick. Pull the plastic cover and try to observe the function and lube the dry spots. I had the same problem and opted for the easy (and better approach in my opinion) which is to disable your pump and het a reservoir with an integrated pump. You can also get an 80s motor which doesn't have the integrated pimp on the wiper motor

Did I mention how stupid I think that setup is!!!!

You will have way stronger spray if you get a proper in reservoir pump!

Integrated pimp lol. I just got rid of my pump plug and bottle n all. Now works fine since unplugged? Mines a 77
