Sorry, I changed the title to get a little help!

It was formerly titled: "Three Speed Wiper Switch Questions"

Short attention spans; I need to two questions in bold below answered.

Okay, trying to get the 3 speed windshield wipers going on a '73 Satellite. The switch was sitting on the seat when I got the car.

I figured it was bad, and when I plugged it in, the wipers turn on whenever the ignition is on, no matter what position the switch is in. One of the position did make them go really fast. I turned off the ignition, and unplugged the connector.

I tried to follow the bench testing procedure, but my switch has a W instead of what I think should be B/U.

I assume this means I have a bad switch.

Until I can get a replacement switch, how can I install a three position toggle switch to get them to work?

What do the different slots on the harness or blades on the switch correspond to?

The big questions are:


Do the wipers park themselves in absense of any power?

Will I hurt or burn up anything by fooling around with it?



I don't mind trying to figure stuff out, I just don't want to destroy more stuff in the process.

Thanks y'all!!
