My 87 300TD has three settings:
  • intermittent (6 second delay between wipes)
  • steady on - slow
  • steady on - fast
It looks like the 126 combination switch has the same settings.

I'm not interested in an automatic wiper, or the programmable aftermarket relay that "learns" how long to delay by turning the intermittent on and off and on again (which I think is what both compu_85 and mbzman are referring to). What I'm really interested in at this point is knowing if MB had a model that had an adjustable intermittent setting with either a smooth dial (or a notched dial with 6 or so settings) to adjust the time between wiper swipes.

I've actually figured out how to "insert" a timer adjustment into the stock w124 circuitry. An adjustable timer circuit isn't too hard to create, I just thought I'd try to find an existing MB circuit that does the same thing to see if I can create an easy mod for folks to do. Finding an existing MB part could also make it easy to make the whole mod look original, otherwise I've gotta come up with a classy solution for a knob placement.
