COMBINATION WASH/WIPER CONTACT SUBASSEMBLY.

摘要

A wash/wiper switch control assembly (34) having an integrally formed wash/wiper contact member (36). The wash/wiper contact member (36) includes a plurality of wiper contact arms which are integrally formed with a central body portion and a wash contact arm which is also integrally formed with the central body portion. The wash/wiper contact member (36) is secured to an actuator member (42) via conventional staking techniques. By manufacturing the wash/wiper contact member (36) as a single component, the overall cost of manufacturing a wash/wiper switch control assembly (34) is reduced. The complexity of manufacturing the wash/wiper contact member (36) is also reduced while the reliability is improved since only a single component part need be secured to the actuator member versus prior art arrangements in which a wash contact and a separate wiper contact are secured to separate component parts of a wash/wiper switch control assembly.
