Default Where is it?

I am looking for (searching for) per the 1972 Chevy Service Manual "an interlock switch actuated by the wiper arm prevents the wiper door form closing until the blades park. The switch is located in the cowl plenum; right side".

OK just where TF is the cowl plenum, right side?

You will see on the pass side under the cowl plenum (wiper grill) where a lever pushes against a vac switch when the plenum is closed so the wipers don't activate until the plenum (grill) fully opens.

Good catch Ken! I still think it would have been better to just let Carrie drive the car!
