variable intermittent wipers

[thebarber]

so i was at the big new england toyota meet on the weekend, and i convinced a friend w/ an 09 xrs to let me try is windshield wiper control arm on my yaris

result: it IS plug and play. however - - the front intermittent wipers work fine, but the rear intermittent doesnt....still just on/off

so for those with a hatch wanting variable intermittent controls for their front wipers can use the wiper control arm off of an 09+ vibe/matrix. (id imagine the controls of a 10th gen corolla would work fine on a sedan)

So, it sounds like Matrix controls for a LB with a rear wiper and Camry controls for a sedan or LB with no rear wiper? Also, is it just 09 Matrix controls for the LB or will prior years work as well?

03-08 matrix/vibe controls WILL NOT work...the plug is different.

i would think that if you didnt have a rear wiper, you could get a control arm off of a camry or 10th gen rolla at itd work fine...

I've got the rear wiper. I would really like variable intermittent, so I'll have to keep my eyes open for an ebay or junk yard 09 matirx switch (I can't justify the cost of one from a dealer).

Here is what I could find from google cache on Violin's wiper switch install.
Not sure how long it will last if someone wants to rebuild it.

I think the part number of the correct switch is 84652-48180

lol, worst DIY evar! you dont need to take the damn wheel off....just get at those screws by turning the wheel, lol

[Stoln]

Has anyone contacted a technician to find out what matrix wiring we need to add to the Yaris to get the rear intermittent to work? Has anyone just figured it out. Please post when you have the info as this would be a cool addition to our rear wiper.

baber...

Have you ever pull off the trim to get to the wiper stock?, if so, any tips or tricks on how to do it

I am planning to pickup a 07 camry stock for my 08

thanks baber...

Did this mod on my sedan. Got an 09 Corolla Wiper switch.
There are 2 screws behind the steering wheel. Just turn the wheel until you can get to them with a screwdriver. Then there is one on the bottom of the steering column housing. After that it's just a straight swap. just disconnect the switch first before removing it from the steering column.

This reminds me that I had (now almost 2 yrs ago) really wanted to get *variable* intermittent action for my front wipers!

Before the hack, I seem to recall someone saying the RAV4 wiper stocks work too?

At least I know that an 09 Matrix wiper stock will work for sure on my 07 Yaris Hatch.

Here's the DIY that I put together that lists a bunch of the compatible ones:

Current price from TRD Sparks on part # 84652-0E050 is $202.91. Called this am, time to parts hunt.

[Panama J]

anyone know if this will work on a 2015 yaris? if not what part will?

thanks

[lani100]

On the older gen stalk from Corolla/ rav4 work, just a matter of comparing the connector at the end. Sure the same trick works on newer models.

[Calrenman]

I have a 2015 with a single speed variable (slow) wiper. I would love to know if a truly "variable" one exists?

I have a variable speed stalk out of like a 2008ish Prius in my 2014 and it was a 5 minute install. The only thing that doesn't work is the intermittent setting on the Prius stalk for the rear wiper. Doesn't bother me as I just leave it on the "intermittent" setting when its off.

Nice! I will do mine when I install the fog light switch!

[Neinris]

Oh man, I was driving in the rain today and was wondering if this has been done before... Sucks that the rear wiper won't also be intermittent, but having an intermittent windshield wipers is worth it enough. I'll be doing this mod in the not so distant future.

[sh0rtlife]

FWIW the stalk litteraly came in a TON of cars and trucks prius being the easiest unit to find, and is easily ID'd

...as for the fog stalk best recomendation is to get a genuine USED unit off ebay from europe ..i paid 25 shipped for mine last year
