Rear Wiper Switch

Post by Tim Leech »

Picked up a NOS grey rear wiper switch for the TZI at the ICCCCCR as its quite worn, seems its from an Estate as its got the intermittant function and doesnt work on my car.

Can it be made to work? I only need the front of the switch, I am sure they are exchangeable and have done them before but if I can get an intermittant wiper that would be a bonus.

Thanks!

At the very least the wiper relay (behind the dash between the glovebox and heater controls) will be different.

All it does in my car is light up but the wiper or wash function doesnt work.

The estate button has one extra pin i seem to recall. I plan to fit an estate switch to the valver for intermittent rear wipe, but havent actually got around to it yet.
