Turn Signal Switch - SW-6874

This fit my 2012 Ford F350. Windshield wiper would not shut completely off. it stayed on at the slowest speed. This fixed it. It took about 30 minutes to install. Knowing which wrenches you need beforehand will shorten install time. You will need a 5.5mm socket to remove bottom cover on steering wheel and a T 10 torque driver to remove old switch.

I dont think the value for money question is fair because the only reason this part sells for so cheap, is because almost every one from the factory is starting to or has failed. If it were a rare part to fail, we would be ordering the same part at a substantially higher price. That being said, the switch works just fine. The arm length is slightly shorter but you would be hard pressed to notice. The column is easy to take apart, theres two t10 screws holding it and the foot pedal adjustment switch in place. Theres tons of videos on how to install this, so I wont explain. Just two tips; One. Be very careful and patient when installing new switch, the pins are on the back and are exposed, they aren't hard to bend or break. Two. For me at least, installing the new switch was easier with the foot pedal button popped out. This is not a job a mechanic needs to do, however, I would recommend someone with some genuine mechanical experience change it out for you for the cost of a six pack or something. No little switch is worth causing damage to your column or its components, believe me.

Works perfectly and install was a synch. It fits just as dealer part does. I know someone that went through the dealership to fix theirs and it cost the over $800.00 for the part and labor. It took 10 mins to replace. I've only had it installed for about a month or so, so I don't know how it will stand up against time but as of right now, it's perfect.

Was pretty much exact same as my factory blinker (see image) Will need = 7/32 socket (for the clam shell around the steering column) T10 Star/Tori (for the 2 screws holding the blinker switch) My “car guy” abilities are probably 5 out of 100... I could change my oil with some help, and I can change a tire pretty quick. So, if you are at ALL able to watch a couple YouTube videos, and discern some sense of how things work... you can do this! And this product makes it that easy. The longest time spent was going to buy a 7/32 socket from the hardware store that is a mile away from my house. (No lie) There are more informative reviews, and videos online, so I will only mention a couple things... 1. Realize that turning the steering wheel 90 degrees left or right reveal/makes easier access (you will understand when you get started) 2. The clamshell comes apart better when you use a flathead at the tab holding the two together (I see a lot of prying, while pushing the tab... just get the tab loose and it will pop open) Separating the shell will give much easier access to that bottom screw of the signal switch attachment. 3. The “Foot Pedal Adjustment” button pops right off, don’t let it intimidate you. It’s like an old Atari joystick... the real part is underneath, that button is just a cover, basically. 4. THIS IS WHERE I WAS WORRIED... the prongs sticking out of the part, and the circuit that it connects to looks pretty fragile (some reviews warned to be cautious, and you should)... but honestly... the parts click in much easier than expected. It’s only kind of scary when you do it... afterword, you will laugh and say “that wasn’t bad!” (But the cautiousness is possibly why)

The wipers on my 2011 f150 stx only had 1 speed, this new part fixed that and only took 15 minutes

More expensive than 3rd party parts but it’s a Ford Motorcraft part instead of a cheap knockoff or part that doesn’t fit properly. Installation took about 15minutes and there are plenty of videos online. I suggest using a magnetic torx or loosen the bolt with a torx and finish pulling it out with a magnet on the bottom so the torx bolt doesn’t fall. Will need the following A ratchet or socket driver or impact driver 7/32 or 5.5mm socket Torx T10 (will want a driver with a long shaft or long bit holder to clear steering wheel and preferably a magnetic Torx tip) Money can be saved by picking up a Duralast/Delco etc part from a chain auto store

Not an extremely hard fix, just requires a little patience. If your Ford wipers will not remain off in the Off setting (they continue to activate as if in the lowest intermittent setting), this will fix it. Requires a 7/32 nut driver or socket with extension to remove the three screws from the lower steering column cover and a T10 torqx for two small screws that hold the switch in place. Once the lower portion of the steering column cover is removed (by depressing two tabs that hold it to the upper) the top cover can be removed, no need to remove the lower cover. Remove the two Torx head screws and pull the switch straight out, a flat blade screw driver helps to break it loose. Reassembly is the reverse. I noticed that some complained that the part was manufactured in China. It is, however Ford has used China made parts for many years. If it fails I will amend my comments.

Just what I needed when my 2013 F-150 wiper switch began malfunctioning. When I turned my wipers off, they would actually be on the lowest intermittent setting, occasionally making one more swipe. Sometimes I could turn them on and off multiple times and they would stop, but you wouldn't know until it was time for them to wipe again. As I was about to embark on a long trip, I didn't want my wipers acting up in dry weather, so I ordered this replacement. It's an easy plug in replacement, and solved my problem immediately. There are YouTube videos showing how easy it is to replace, and it's the actual Ford product.

Totally satisfied with this purchase! I always worry about disassembling plastic part on an older vehicle but I found a DIY video on YouTube with great step by step instructions and was able to replace the worn out switch in my 2011 F350 SD Lariat with this one in 20 minutes flat. The part was the same make and part number as the original and delivery was insanely quick. The thing works perfectly, was half the price I was expecting to pay and was so easy to install I almost can't believe it. SOOO glad I decided not to pay through the nose to have the dealership do this work!

Original y excelente

Perfect match for the broken one, easy to install after watching a short video on youtube, 3 bolts, 2 screws, pop out the old one, pop in the new one. Now my wipers don't come on every 20 seconds.

Perfect OEM fit right out of the box. It corrected both the ghost wipers and the main driving head lights. Typically on a 2013 Ford FX4 during the day only the front side ambers are on. In my case the main driving lights remained on while in the Auto position during the day unless i manually turned the switch to off.

Works as expected. Actual OEM product, Wipers are no longer stuck on intermittent mode!
