I am attempting to diagnose my non-working wipers by testing the switch directly.

So far I have removed the steering wheel and removed the 4 screws inside. The stuff in the column is 'loose' now, but I can't actually remove anything, only pull it out by about 1/2" or so. Is there a trick? I am afraid of breaking something if I pull too hard.

I have the wiring 'flow' diagram from the Pelican website, but I don't totally understand it. I will have to do some more studying!

The car is a 1974, 1.8L

Be aware that the wiring colour changes at the plug, and it may not be shown in the wiring diagram. It can cause a lot of confusion if you've got the switch removed and you're trying to trace things.
