My windscreen washer switch didn't work very often when pressed in. I found out the hard way but, the the very end piece of the switch will come off with a tiny screwdriver. Under that is a screw, which when removed will let you pull out the contact switch. [parts don't fly out everywhere].

I just cleaned the contacts with some fine emery paper. One of the contacts will look as if its bent. Don't try and straighten it. Its meant to be like that.

Now I have working washers with just a delicate push of the switch.

Mines in for MOT and I'm getting a new stalk as my main beam is intermittent. I can wait to have a switch that works, so I know how you feel!!!
