[QUOTE="cburyta, post: 435812, member: 20367"] Just based on my recent replacement of the turn signal wiring, key cylinder and multifunction lever (with cruise control) on my 1987 YJ... There are 2 parts, the multifunction lever and the wiper switch... if the tip is broke off the lever but the wiper switch housing is OK, then you _may_ not need to replace the switch or open the column with some luck... (but probably.) Worth using a small drill bit and see if you can grab the tip and pull it out? I saw a couple threads where others did that - however the larger part was broken in the housing not just the tip. It seems more risky though so if you are comfortable removing the wheel / horn / turn signal parts to reach the wiper switch it's probably easier to push that nub out from the inside (I saw wiper switches for about $80.)
