My wipers are not working, so I checked and tested the wiper motor. When I wire it hot form the battery it works but when I try to use the switch I get nothing. I am guessing the switch is bad. Which brings me to my next problem. I don't know how to remove the existing switch without breaking it ! Can anyone help me with this???

After 6 hours of removing parts I found the problem. There was a bad ground behind the wiper motor where the strap touches the chassy. Since I was running a good ground from the battery direct to the motor, I had a hard time knowing there was a bad ground there!!!
