Ford Escort (1996), replace rear window defrost switch




My rear window defrost switch lost it's catch. I bought a used switch on e-bay. As the picture suggests, the switch is attached to the back of the cluster trim panel. To replace, loosen the trim panel by removing the screws (torx T20, 9/32 hex). Unscrew (9/32) and unplug the old switch and plug in the new. Screw in the new switch, replace the trim panel.
