Wiper Switch Woes

So I'm in the middle of rewiring my truck and I cant figure out the wiring on my wiper switch. Now i think my switch is a 2 speed switch although when turned to the second speed (turning clockwise) it shuts the wipers off. The back of the switch has 4 poles however a PO bent one over because it did not fit the existing plug which only used three of the four poles and had only three wires.

Heres the switch:


Also the numbers stamped on the switch are C3TB-17A553-E dunno if that helps anything.

My question is which poles do what if anyone knows and if it is a 2 speed switch how can I tell if my motor is also a 2 speed motor.
