Hey guys,
I think I just finished killing off my windshield washer switch (dash mount), what I would like to know is can I use a 3 position switch that will fit there to take it's place or is that a really bad idea. I'm not too worried about a stock look, I just need it to be functional is all. I think it's pretty ok internally but there is nothing there to support it and provide the resistance one needs to actuate the switch. Lots of prying and forcing got a couple more starts from it but I don't think this is a prudent and responsible way to be operating a vehicle. Any advice would be good and if someone has a wiring diagram around the switch that would be even better. Also does anyone know if this part and wiring are the same between 80-86 and 87-91? I have more detailed diagrams for 87+ and it might come in handy in case I decide to stick with the stock part. Thanks again,
JD
