wiper switch failure
 
for those who will spit fire at me, i searched and all i found was that the reason my wipers only work on the low speed on my 10AE is because a relay has failed internally. who has replaced the relay, how is it done, and what is its amperage? i have relays, new in the pack in my garage rated at 30A. will these work or do i need a specially deisgned relay or special shaped relay? thank you in advance for any info, even if it is a link for teh diy.

I rebuild them, or you can do it yourself:

$45 for coupes without rear wipers and convertibles.
$65 for coupe with rear wipers

+ shipping (and tax if you are in CA).

hmm, i dont have a solder sucker... Icemark, do you have a 100% success rate when rebuilding the switches? it really doesnt seem that difficult to do, just very precice and time consuming.

Can't beat the deal. No fuss, just send him the switch and you're good to go. Mark did mine years ago, even replaced a light.

I have been rebuilding them for over 5 years and have rebuilt close to 1000 now.

All my electronics have a 8 month warranty.

I just ordered the relay from Icemark and fixed it myself and it works great. If I didn't already have have advanced soldering knowldge I would have efinately sent the switch in to be fixed. He is very knowledgable and helpful.
