I am in the process of installing a new loom on a car i am rebuilding so lots of things not installed yet.
I can't remember if this is an original switch or a replacement.
I know i have tested the windscreen wiper switch output and the wiper motor moved ok.
However, i am installing the washer fluid and pump. The pump tested separately works fine, but i have an issue with the switch.

In terms of wires/connections on the switch, as far as i understand:
- the double green is the power input
- the red/green is the output to the windscreen wiper motor, and this is live when i i turn the knob on the switch
- the brown/green should also be output to the windscreen wiper motor, but i can only turn the knob on the switch one position, and regardless, this never gets any current/live
- and because of that, even though i can push the knob on the switch in, no current goes down the green/back to the fluid motor (as it gets its feed via that small black link wire)

Should the switch turn to 2 positions, or is there something else going on?

Yes, you should have slow, fast and wash.

I think the fat brown wire should be the 12v Live feed though. Not sure.
