Guys, what are the options for conversion of windshield wiper and heater fan motors to 12 Volt in our M998 type vehicles?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Problem is cost. H1 parts are usually expensive until you discover things like steering column came from Ford Escort and such.I would think an early H1 blower motor would be 12v and fit. It would probably use the same bird cage too.

Have you seen wood prices lately??!!???? Cheaper to buy a real part.Make it out of plywood
Or you can pay them $250 a year and they might be able to give you some cross over info.......That blower motor does not look special in any way but when you see a retail of $150 for a $30 part that is nuts.
This pic has a part number and mfg looks like hunter? maybe you can get the pic cleaned up and zoom in. Someone makes this motor for universal applications and you can always have the wiring tidbits in the kit that are needed.

Napa in my days in the balkamp line had universal blower motors if you can find a parts guy that has an illustrated parts paper guide or knows what that is.........
Using my custom PCB. Similar to CamO unit BUT allows more options. ?Others have done it so I’m trying not to reinvent the wheel here.
If necessary I will use a Jeep tj motor.
I hate 24 Volt. Using my custom system to swap to 12 Volt on several trucks including my own.

Save your energy, he still thinks a Ford Escort steering column fits.Using my custom PCB. Similar to CamO unit BUT allows more options. ?
What more do you need to start the truck ?
His is the best out there and there are a few that did a manual box.
I think he was being sarcastic.Save your energy, he still thinks a Ford Escort steering column fits.
Rewinding a motor takes hours by hand and is a very precise activity. I don’t have the patience nor the technical expertise. Easier to sell the 24 Volt units for a lot of $ and then purchase the cheaper 12 Volt units. Another method is using a power inverter circuit.Sorry, you misunderstood! (my bad english)
I wanted to ask, isn’t that an option to rewind the motor to 12 volt?
You have to understand where he is they just don't throw everything away, probably much easier to rewind a motor than to find anything that would fit a HMMWV.Rewinding a motor takes hours by hand and is a very precise activity.
