#1 Bulkhead fitting

Post by Grobinson » Sun Jun 23, 2019 8:18 am

Hi,
I've been trying to identify a fitting that's on my 62 FHC, it has a knurled edge and operates something but I'm not sure what. The photo may not be clear but It's located below the heater control valve

Many thanks
Graeme

It’s the park adjustment for the wipers.
Fiddle with it at your peril !

Thanks for the reply Tim, I did wonder if it was wiper related but couldn't make it out in the manual.
I'm in the process of converting to RHD anyway so I'm yet to address the whole wiper issue although I believe I can adjust the existing wiper - at least that's what my auto electrician told me!?
Thanks again
Graeme

You can indeed change from lhd to rhd wiper parking. There’s a great article in the kb covering how to do it. I did it as part of my lhd to rhd conversation.
