That's the question, how do I get them woking, they have worked since I bought it last year, sometimes, but now not at all, what is the most likely problem? I replaced all the gounds trying to fix my temp/fuel gauges so it's not ground, at least not in the battery/engine/frame/dash area that is. Also any more help on these gauges would be a help too, fuel worked up intill I filled it up last month, temp has never worked or moved, now they both move to full/hot.
81 CJ7 wipers not working

I would first run a booster cable from the battery negative to the wiper motor itself. I had to wire mine direct. My hinges decided they didn't want to be a good ground anymore.
Moving to full hot means the voltage regulator in the gas gauge has given up. The gauges work on 5 volts.
Here is a site on them:

You 'can' replace the regulator with an electronic one. I attached one to the strap that goes between the gauges and they worked for a while. (I have a bad internal connection so my gauges only see 3 V most of the time no matter which regulator is being used. Gotta take it apart one day.)

The over center issue is just with the s***ty after market frames Bill.
The damn hole isn't in the right place on the driver's side. I fixed mine for 4 years using a washer as a brace but it died a month ago so I cut the hole and a 3"x6" chunk out of my old OEM frame and just bolted the thing on mine so I now have a solid hole in the right place.
