Let's see how to replace the wiper switch carefully. First step: use a plastic trim tool to open the plastic cover under the steering wheel and disconnect the power connectors.

Second step: use a socket wrench to remove the screws securing the airbag piece at the sides of the steering wheel. Unscrew the central steering wheel pin and mark its current position with a marker for reassembly.

Remove the steering wheel and unscrew the screws from its cover with a screwdriver, then remove all the screws from the switch and take it out after disconnecting the relevant connectors. At this point, unscrew the switch you are going to replace from the window switch assembly.

Reassemble everything in reverse order: fit the light switch, reconnect the connectors, tighten all screws and cover plastics. Finally, fit the steering wheel with the securing pin and the airbag on top.
