Hi 👋 buddy of mine said; we will put in your new washer pump!! But do me a favor,,, pick up a wiper switch, what’s the part no# for this 79 Chevy Malibu non intermittent wiper thingy switch ?

I have been searching for wiper switch. And I need guidance. Dez
 
Is there an issue with you original? They do go bad but not too often. To ensure if you need one or not, make sure everything functions. Right now I'm guessing both speeds work & just need to put a test light on the two tweminals for the washer pump to make sure it lights when pushing to wash. But in case, I don't have any part numbers handy right now but the non delay switch is interchangeable between the '78-'79 & '80-'81 with the difference being early having "WIPE WASH", later have the wipe/wash symbol. Chevy's & GMC regardless of the dash cluster.

Been nursing this wiper motor for a year. Non-intermittent wipers would shut off randomly, so I picked up a new washer pump. At one point, I had to nudge the wipers by hand to get them moving again, then they started working on their own. Noticed the ground was off, so I pulled the fender to make sure it was solid. Now I’ve got nothing—no wipers at all.Dez

Ps thanks for your response. đź‘‹





So far, I’ve replaced the motor, washer pump, and wiper cover. Now I’m looking for the switch. What’s the best way to look that up?
 
469070 is the GM p/n for 78-80 non-delay wiper switch. Superseded to 14009243.
Here's an NOS 9243 that was used in the 81s. It has the little windshield icon. Around 30 bucks shipped seems very do-able.

Can always count on you man. I was needing this education. I grabbed it we shall see . Literally as it’s been raining. And I squeegee. At red lights 💦🚦🔴
 
I help where I can. I make no guarantees on anything as I'm not fluent on every part on every model. Especially dash mounted switches like this. Just as long as you don't have delay wipers, this should work out for you. Fingers crossed.
