I am trying to figure out what I have here. I noticed that there are two different wiper switches available. 70-72 and 73-76.
This is the one that is in the best condition. Notice that it only has four pins on the left side.  I have already attached a switch that I got from davep, which will trigger my electric washer pump that I plan to install.  This is the second one that I have. Being in worse condition out of the two. It has five pins on the left side. The extra one being a brown, which is ground correct?  The switch is also different in that the plunger that would activate the washer fluid has an electrical contact  I am running a wiring harness from a 72 car. Which switch do I need to use? Am i missing pieces from the first switch maybe? Im stumped here... Pete |

A switch from a '77 924, Rabbit, or Scirocco works. It's NLA, though.
