windshield wiper dash control panel ground

[jforest1]

Read about every windshield wiper problem on the forums and got to work and figured out that my dash panel with the windshield wiper knob on it is not properly grounded, so my wipers won't park, and my 3 speed motor only goes one speed (fast). 

That is, until I push the panel in and up.  Then it grounds and everything works properly.  Until I let go and the panel drops and comes out 1/32nd of an inch.

So my question is, how is that panel grounded specifically?  I'd like to correct it both so I can fix the immediate problem and so I have a bigger margin of error when removing/reinstalling it in the future.

I'm also kinda pissed because discovering this problem also ended my streak--I've owned the car since Nov 2010 and I finally got caught in some rain.  The high and dry clock starts over...best time to beat 17 months.

If you look on the bottom of your switch panel, where there are 2 screws that hold it in, 1 screw has a metal tab that actually grounds the whole switch panel to the dash. If you removed the panel and looked at the back, you will say....duh

and you might want to add another ground to it.

Finally carved out 30 minutes to investigate this again and lo and behold, no screw!  Thanks for the help.  Works again!
