bad wiper switch?

[Andy H]

I have a 2000 camaro and when I turn my wiper switch back to mist, it takes a lot of force before the wipers will come on. There is about a 1/4 inch of play in the switch. Anybody else ever had this happen? Thanks!

Sounds like the switch is bad. Better to replace it now, then it is to wait too long and have them not work at all.

mine does not have cruise control. I pulled the turn signal lever out and I found a piece of metal broken inside the switch. here is a pic. http://users.chartertn.net/andyhawks/switch.JPG
