Your Nissan Combination Switch is a controller that regulates various automotive functions. It lets you control the headlights and fog lights, regulates the wipers and windshield fluid pump, and, in some cases, helps you set your cruise control preferences. It can commonly be called a “turn,” “combi,” or “wiper” switch.
The “wiper” switch requires a network of wires to connect to the steering column, with all the wires linking from the switch to the component. Since the switch relies on specific wires for each function it controls, an impact, a short circuit, or any electrical fault may rattle its functionality — causing one or several features to malfunction. Consequently, unresponsive windshield wipers, turn signals, or headlights can make driving dangerous. Plus, in many states, if one or several of these important features aren't working, your Nissan might not meet the minimum requirements for legal usage on public roads.
If the Combination Switch isn't working as it should, you might notice things like an inoperative washer fluid pump, unresponsive turn signals or the inability to toggle your low and high beams, or unresponsive windshield wipers. These symptoms are especially concerning if you've ensure that parts of these specific features like the headlight bulbs and wiper blades are working properly.
If you notice any of these signs, get a genuine OEM Combination Switch replacement made specifically for your vehicle model and year as soon as you can. In addition, head to an authorized Nissan service center near you to get professional diagnostic and replacement services from local experts. Due to the complexity of the electrical wiring and steering system components involved in replacing your Combination Switch, it's best to avoid replacing the Combination Switch at home.
