Two Speed Wiper Switch

Anybody make a decent two-speed wiper switch? I'm on my third one now. The last one had the backend blow out and it took a while to figure out all the springs, washers, etc. to get it back together and the back crimped on tight. It worked for a while but now it doesn't "park" when you turn it off.

Are they all pretty much the same and just buy a couple to have a spare on hand, or is there a decent replacement part available?

Thanks

I'm looking into that as well, but a 30 second delay (max speed) may not help too much in a down pour. It’s also my understanding that it’s meant to work in conjunction with your regular switch and washer system, not replace it.

It works along side of a single speed switch ( rarely fail) and you can adjust from .3 seconds all the way to 30 seconds with the potentiometer

Napa sells them I think. Buy one with a life time warranty. My one speed works, but I may replace it when I put a CD player in the dash.
