Changed out both the Directional switch and the Wiper switch in the 914 a week or so ago. Seems to be working fine EXCEPT - the wiper return to off capability still doesn't work.
I have the following steering wheel, part number 914-347-8041, a hard plastic phenolic ?? wheel with the following return post, see pics. Seems the return post isn't long enough to mate with the switch mechanism. Is it broken off or is there another part I should be looking for ?? I've scoured the World for previous posts on this subject to no avail. Or maybe I'm still a rooking at looking Thanks all ![]() ![]() |

No washers under the switch. I was referring to the tiny metal tube spacers inside the switch under the 4 holes the tiny screws go through to secure the switch to the steering column. The only washers I was describing were additional washers added underneath the operating tang mounted on the bottom of the steering wheel hub in order to move the tang lower into the switch assembly so it can trigger the switch to turn off once a turn has been completed.
