Windshiled Wiper Switch with Washer Button
I'm replacing my switches, and would like to find a wiper switch that has a push in function for the washer, instead of having a separate button for the washer.
Anyone know what switch will fit into the stock wiper spot, but has the washer function built into the same switch?

The 1966 trucks after serial number 760,001 used a "new" switch that was for the 2 speed wipers and has a switch to activate a washer pump built in to the wiper switch. I'd have to fiddle with one to see how the pump is activated (push, pull, etc.) as it has been a while but I could come up with that info if needed.
66 F100/350 "From Ser. 760,001" Used with 2 speed wipers - 7 terminals
marked C6TB-17A553-B
C6TZ-17A553-B (SW-736)
Here's an older post from ND that confirms what I'm talking about.

There are 24 of them at 5 different sellers.

Note that this switch does not have a delay feature and doesn't support adding one.

It is more than likely the same switch used on Ford trucks up through 79 and possibly later. I played around with one out of my 78 in my 65 years ago. I recall that it fits in the stock hole and location. It has 2 speeds with a push to activate washer fluid. You wouldn't be able to utilize the 2 speed, but it could be wired to operate just the 1 speed. I didn't end up putting it in because I really wanted a 2 speed wiper motor. I was going to wire an aftermarket intermittent speed device to the 2nd position but I haven't got around to it.

73-79 switches could also have the intermittent (delay) capability with a governor and some guys put those switches in their earlier truck. Works fine with the 2 speed wipers if they came in the older truck originally, or you can swap wiper motors with a 2 speed if it came with a 1 speed from factory.
Wiper **** shaft is slightly longer but can be trimmed to make it look very much stock.
