Take command of your wiper operation with the Standard Ignition Windshield Wiper Switch WP-173, the driver-side control that signals the wiper system on, off, and through its speed settings. It installs as a direct-fit OE-replacement for the 2000 Mitsubishi Montero and the 2000-2004 Mitsubishi Montero Sport — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level fitment.
If a worn or failed wiper switch is behind wipers that won't turn on, stick on one speed, or respond intermittently, this direct-fit unit replaces the original control. Diagnose the cause before ordering to confirm the switch — not the motor, wiring, or relay — is at fault.
