Description

Ever wonder why your rear wiper shuts off automatically when you hit the brakes? That’s this handy little switch doing its job – protecting your wiper motor and keeping your visibility clear when you need it most. John Deere designed these multi-function switches to save dashboard space while putting essential controls at your fingertips. When this switch starts acting up, you might notice the wiper won’t shut off during braking or your brake lights get temperamental.

What You’re Getting

Dual-function switch that controls both brake lights and rear wiper cut-off operation
Reliable brake light activation every time you press the pedal
Automatic rear wiper shut-off prevents motor strain and improves visibility during braking
Heavy-duty contacts built to handle the electrical loads from both circuits
Direct replacement that plugs into your existing wiring harness

Built for Real Farm Work

This switch works across multiple generations of John Deere tractors, from the mid-range 5020 series utility tractors through the powerful 7030 series row-crop machines. Whether you’re running a 6420 through muddy fields, backing up to a grain cart with a 6930, or using a compact 5720 for loader work, this switch ensures your brake lights work when other drivers need to see them and your rear wiper doesn’t fight against you during stops.

Made to Last

These switches work harder than any other control in your cab, handling thousands of operations per year in dusty and vibration-heavy environments. This replacement is built with sealed construction to keep moisture and dirt out of the electrical contacts, ensuring reliable operation through seasons of hard use.

Installation Notes

Access is usually through the dash panel or steering column shroud, and you’ll want to disconnect the battery first since this switch controls multiple high-current circuits. The wiring typically uses a multi-pin connector, so snap a quick photo before disconnecting to make reassembly straightforward. Test both brake lights and wiper operation after installation to confirm everything’s working properly.
