Wiper Switches

Post by LarMer »

One of my 3 wipers stopped. It's switch is bad. The switch is one of three in a dedicated switch assembly that includes fuses for each switch. In the course of diagnosing the problem I damaged the switch assembly and would like to replace it. I have not been able to find a similar part. I may need to buy 3 separate toggles and fit fuses in the lines, but it would be easier to replace the existing assembly. I've attached a photo of the assembly. It has 3 toggle switches and 3 fuse holders, separated by a metal box. In addition to the primary wires, both the switches and the fuses have smaller wires that connect to this metal box. I don't know what the function of this box is nor whether it is really needed. Anyone have any idea where I can find a replacement, or any suggestions for a work around?
