I pulled the turn signal and wiper switch assembly from my 1973 914 1.7 - in order to replace a defective ignition switch. When I took the assembly to the bench for examination and cleaning, the above part fell-out.

Sorry I didn't photograph the part "to scale" - but for reference, it is only a little over .25" long and looks like a possible electrical contact. I don't know if it belongs inside the wiper switch assy. or the signal switch assy.

Any help anyone could afford would be great... as I would HATE to put the steering column back together with leftover parts!

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR HELPING A "NEWBIE!"

that is the piece for the wiper switch

George:

Thank you so much for your response. Now that I know the part it is for the wiper switch, I'll take a closer look at that assy. and try to figure-out exactly where it goes. I really appreciate the tip!
