Acura 35256-S3V-A11 Wiper Switch Assembly

To begin the removal process for safety reasons, firstly disconnect the cable from the negative terminal on the battery and wait for at least 3 minutes before proceeding. Next, remove both upper and lower steering column covers including knee bolster. To remove the headlight switch, high beam/low beam switch and turn signal switch which make up multi-function switch, disconnect its electrical connectors from the switch and take out retaining screws. Finally prise apart the little pad on a small lug of a key way by means of careful fingers to get into a position where you can yank it out; after that you will have to pull out this very item which is called "a wiper/washer switch". The procedure for removing a wiper/washer switch involves an electrical connector removal, taking off retaining screws as well as prying away housing from that small pad on top of such device until it finally comes out. In addition to that, steering wheel together with airbag clockspring must be removed in order to access combination switch assembly containing multifunction switches as well as wiper/washer switches. Disconnect all wires from multifunction switches as well as windshield wiper/washer switches and combination switch. Then unclip airbag electrical harness from small bracket located at left side of key lock cylinder/ignition switch housing by pulling clip towards rear of vehicle; also disconnect big yellow connector attached to airbag harness. Remove mounting screws(3)and combination switch assembly from steering column. This is done in reverse order during installation.
