Miscellaneous Miscellany (Assistance Required)
Hey guys, so I've got a good one.
When I changed my turn signal/high beam switch, my brake lights both worked (whereas they previously one didn't). All of my other lights worked as well. But now my brake light is back out. I've determined that it has to be the socket, because I can switch bulbs around, and it stays out, but when I swap the bulb socket from side to side the issue follows it. I just think it's weird that changing the stalk and fixing my high beam issue caused the brake light to work for a short period of time.
Another issue I've discovered is that now my reverse lights don't work. I've checked both bulbs and they're both good (even replaced them to be safe). Could the reverse light switch be an issue? They just don't kick on at all, but everything else except that one brake light works.
My wipers also don't have a speed adjustment. They get faster as I click the stalk lower, but I can't use the slide adjuster to modify the pace. Should I be able to, or is that just the control for the rear wiper (which also doesn't work)?

Woops, yeah sorry, 88 245 DL.
I wasn't sure if the wipers had a speed adjustment or not, since the lowest speed setting above intermittent was actually quite fast. The intermittent setting is sometimes too slow for the rain, but the slowest constant setting is fast enough that it feels like overkill. Guess that's just the way they are.
Now I guess I need to figure out why my rear wiper doesn't work.
