The wiper switch that came with my kit seems to only connect the wipers, with no washer connection. However, there is an odd plastic thing on the back that seems to take a washer tube. Is it possible to operate the washers from thus switch? Or
Do I need to buy a suitable switch? I don't really want a separate washer button it switch. How does that work? See attached wiring diagram. Thanks in advance.

Two questions:
1. What "kit" did this switch come from?
2. I assume that you turn it to get from off to slow or fast, but does the knob also push in and pop back out as well?
I ask number 2, because that's how my wiper switch works. Pushing the knob in starts the windshield washer.
Its from Sebring - they are new to replica kits but its the same as the UK Chesil. Push to wash - I don't know is the simple answer - I’ll check. Be great if if does buy there are no extra connections in the back. Do you know where yours came from?
That looks like it's patterned after the old VW type switch where a plastic air canister is fed air from the spare tire! I don't see any electrical feed to a small electric water pump.

Air from the tire? What a crazy idea!!
