Wiper switch

Does anyone repop wiper switches that don't explode into many small parts after installing it? I've purchased two from two different suppliers and they have both blown up with very little use.

Re: Wiper switch

I'd get a GM one from the junkyard myself. I don't think I've everr seen a bad one that was OEM. China parts are basicly junk.

Re: Wiper switch

I had that problem. I put a bunch of epoxy on the back of the new one. Haven't had a problem since.

Re: Wiper switch

The original one did the same thing, but it was 40 years old. I'l try the epoxy and see if that works. Thanks.
