Standard Ignition WP697 Wiper Switch

Overview

Standard Ignition WP697 is a new wiper switch for column-mounted applications on Ford Transit and Transit Connect models. It provides direct control for wiper speed, delay, and windshield washer spray functions in a black, clip-mounted design.

Key Features

• Black plastic and rubber construction for a factory-style appearance.
• Female connector with a single connector interface and plug-style terminals.
• Includes windshield washer spray control, wiper delay, and wiper speed settings.
• Two delay settings and three speed settings for multi-function wiper control.
• Clip attachment method for column-mounted installation.

Detailed Description

This Standard Ignition WP697 wiper switch is built as a new replacement part for vehicles that use a column-mounted control layout. It is configured with a female connector, four female terminals, and a polygon-shaped connector housing to match the electrical interface used in the application. The switch supports windshield washer spray operation along with integrated delay and speed control, making it a practical replacement for worn or nonresponsive wiper controls. Compatible With Ford Transit-150, Transit-250, Transit-350, Transit-350 HD, and Transit Connect applications, WP697 is a fitment-based solution for restoring driver control of the windshield wiper system. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., GK2Z17A553A, WPSB10248) for the same application.

Common Uses

• Restores intermittent wiper delay control when the original switch no longer responds.
• Replaces a worn wiper speed selector with a direct electrical control unit.
• Addresses washer spray activation issues caused by a failing column switch.
• Solves broken or inconsistent multi-function wiper operation at the steering column.

Installation Notes

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and column-mounted configuration before installation. Match the vehicle application and switch layout to the original part to confirm proper electrical connection and function. Professional installation is recommended when diagnosing intermittent or multi-function switch faults.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies replacement electrical components for service applications, and WP697 is a new part built for direct-fit replacement use.
