At first I just thought it was the motor so I just bought a new one, if I knew it was the switch as well because it was working before, I would have gone with the two speed upgrade.
I have taken apart the switch and soldered on a loose connection, I believe it overheated and melted some of the plastic and thats what caused it to only work some of the time, after you wiggle the back of the plug. I will continue now to try to make the old one work again but I am sure it will eventually go out again.
I am hoping that I could make a two speed switch work and one of the two speed settings wouldnt do anything.
If anyone has done that please let me know which wires go where. I am still trying to figure out this switch. Not as simple as I thought since it has the park feature to return the wipers to the down postion.
Thanks all for the input.

Called NOS, they dont have it, The mustang center phone number is not currently working as I am getting a voicemail box from a guy in a thick accent saying "Bulldog?" So I assume its the wrong number. Im going try to salvage the switch, if not then maybe a 65 mustang switch with a one speed and no washer, but it has one more terminal than I have wires, uh oh.

I don't recognize the phone number listed on rearcounter, but the number above I know is correct.
