Before I break it, I'm sure there is an easy way to take this off without breaking it. Can you help with directions?
Thanks!

They have a micro-set screw on them, that requires a tiny flat screw driver or a micro hex driver. With it loosened, the knob will pull off.

I just purchased a windshield wiper switch. A one-speed and it's on page 41 of the following link. Item #60-062041

http://www.scribd.com/fullscreen/82564996?access_key=key-25nhdrsz2gz3h8aoa7qx

When I tested continuity on the two posts on the switch, I got nothing unless I pushed in the "plunger" that the knob covers when installed. When I turn the switch on, again, I get nothing unless I push in the "plunger". Am I doing something wrong or is a bad switch?

Also, does anyone have a wiring diagram for the wiper circuit?

Thanks again!

A single-speed switch, has one male flat blade on it and the switch grounds through the device. A single speed switch does not have the plunger for the washers on it, so it appears you have a two speed switch with washers. On a two-speed switch, the plunger & low or the plunger & high will be on at the same time.

If it has two tabs, it is a two speed switch, whereas the original single speed switch has a single male blade connector.

I still have my original single speed switch that I can use. However, I'm a little lost on the wiring. Does the power from the fuse block go directly to one of the two tabs on the wiper motor? And then do I run a wire from the second tab on the wiper motor to the tab on the switch?
