window switch or wiper switch??

window switch pops out with a little screwdriver under the edge gently pry up


wiper switch involves removing column cover screws, removing cover and swapping the switch/stalk

This is not a good pic. Does your wiper switch (on the door) look like this?

OP seems to have an '85 car so .................

OP - what leads you to believe in needing to replace your wiper switch? What actual issue do you now have?

Wipers do not work on delay or low. They only work on high if I press down on the button. Is it necessary to remove the door panel to replace?
