The Combination Switch on your Nissan is designed to control various automotive functions. It lets you control the headlights and fog lights, it controls the speed of the wiper blades and lets you spray the wiper fluid, and, in some cases, helps you set your cruise control preferences. Often, it is colloquially referred to as the “wiper,” “combi,” or “turn” switch.
The “combi” switch utilizes a network of wires to power each function, with each wire providing a solid connection to the function it controls. Since the switch relies on precisely connected wires to control your vehicle's features, any electrical faults, short circuits, and impact may rattle its functionality — potentially causing one or several of the functions to stop working. As a result, unresponsive windshield wipers, turn signals, or headlights can affect your driving experience and cause dangerous situations. In addition, if one or more of these features isn't working, you might not be able to drive your vehicle legally on public roads.
If your Combination Switch isn't working correctly, you may notice symptoms such as a malfunctioning or unresponsive washer fluid pump, being unable to activate the turn signals or switch between high and low beam headlights, or malfunctioning windshield wipers. These malfunctions can be especially troublesome if you've already verified that feature-specific components such as the headlight bulbs and windshield wiper blades are working as they should.
If you notice any of these signs, purchase a genuine replacement Combination Switch made specifically for your vehicle model and year as soon as possible. In addition, locate your nearest Nissan service provider for installation services from professionals who know your vehicle. Due to the complexity of the electrical wiring and steering system components involved in replacing your Combination Switch, it's best to leave Combination Switch replacement to a professional.
