New kid with some ?'s

[eihcirbikes17]

just signed up for the forum, its been super helpful. i will try my best to help as well. having some weird random issues with my expy. '99 EB awd with 184k on it.

1) rear wiper stopped working, I've read its the motor that goes, is there a simple fix or trick i can try to avoid doing a motor?
2) who makes a good decently inexpensive rain guard for the windows?
3) e brake light doesn't come on when e brake is applied. weird.
4) need a wiring harness for a new head unit, cant seem to find what i need
5) think the passenger side view mirror is burned? heated mirrors?
6) couldn't find anything, but odometer cuts in and out?
7) does the rear wiper fluid come from the main source, or is their another tank?
8) suggestions on new tires, something a little beefier than stock, but i don't wanna get into new wheels/lift
9)i want to do an intake/anything relatively simple to improve gas mileage, any suggestions?

i think that's it. like i said its all weird little things that are just bothering me. this is my first nice truck and i wanna keep it that way. had two beater rangers before this. thanks guys! ill post pictures as soon as its nice enough to take them!

1.) For the rear wiper, I don't think there is a short cut, just grin and bear it for the new motor. LOL
2.) For the rain guard, it depends on what you want. I am getting the rain guards that goes inside the lip of the door so I don't have to have anything "stuck" to my truck. They are made by Weather Tech. They range from $40-$99.
3.) If the light doesn't come on, it might be a light, but since you are having problems with your odometer cutting in and out, it might be more than that.
4.) What kind of head unit are you putting in it? Ebay has wiring harnesses as well as Crutchfield.
5.) It is a high possibility that if the mirror is burned, it is heated mirrors. Your mirrors should have a heat symbol on them if that is the case.
6.) was answered on #3.
7.) It should come from your main tank but you have to keep it pretty full. I have noticed that if you don't, it doesn't always work
8.) BFGoodrich ATs are good, beefy, and look great without having to get new rims or a lift.
9.) K&N Air Filter is always a good way to go as well as an exhaust. I hope that this helps.

#2-Any auto parts store sells them for all 4 windows for like $25.00. All are the same no matter where you get them.

#3-The e-brake switch behind the pedal maybe need of cleaning or replacing. Or the dummy light on the cluster may need replacing.

I just fixed mine last week as it was doing the same and another member sent me this link. It was the exact way to fix it. I had a cold soldier joint on one of the prongs. Now it is fixed and took all of 30min to fix.

Check my thread as I just did the cluster and a few others that you are inquiring about.

awesome thanks guys!!! found the wiring harness, was confused because I'm no longer using the amp/6 disc changer so those harnesses just get deleted. crutchfield rules. placing my order for the rain guards as we speak, i also didn't want to glue any on. thanks gain guys!
