What is the Combination Switch Assembly all about?

A combination switch assembly has several functions. This component is connected to your turn signal indicator and controls all of the functions on the lever. The combination switch assembly adjusts the high and low beams on your headlights, indicates when you are turning left or right, and activates the hazard lights when needed. It turns on the windshield wipers in the front as well as the rear if equipped. The switch also activates the windshield washer fluid.

The switch is located inside the steering column and connects to the lever with multiple wires that run to the various components that the switch controls. When the switch fails, none of the components attached to it will work. However, a faulty switch may work periodically or for some components and not others until it fails completely.

Keep in mind:

The combination switch assembly activates and adjusts all components attached to the turn signal lever.
The steering column must be removed to access the switch.
The combination switch will need to be replaced not repaired.
The combination switch will vary based on make and model and even year because different controls have been added to the turn signal lever.

How it's done:

The combination switch assembly is verified that it needs to be replaced. The battery is then disconnected.
The steering column trim panels are removed for access and the defective combination switch assembly is disconnected and removed.
The new combination switch assembly is installed and connected.
The trim panels are reinstalled. The battery is then reconnected and the combination switch assembly is tested for operation.
The vehicle is road tested to ensure proper operation of the combination switch assembly.

Our recommendation:

The same symptoms that indicate a failed combination switch assembly may also be caused by other problems such as blown fuses. Have one of our expert mechanics check out the issue and rule out other causes before replacing the combination switch.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Combination Switch Assembly?

Headlights won’t adjust from high to low beam or vice-versa
Turn signals fail to operate
Windshield wipers won’t turn on or washer fluid isn’t activated

How important is this service?

If the combination switch assembly stops working, you won’t be able to drive after dark because the headlights won’t come on. You could also get a traffic violation for failing to signal when turning or even cause an accident. Have it inspected and replaced if necessary as soon as possible.

BMW 530i L6-3.0L - Brake Pads Replacement (Front, Rear) - Austin, Texas

I had originally contacted YourMechanic.com because the iDrive system in my BMW 530i was notifying me that I needed to replace my front brake pads. I call the dealership and they wanted $550. Then I received and email from Amazon Local for the same job through YourMechanic.com for $90, so I opted for the less expensive route. David was sent to my apartment complex. After a quick meet and greet, David got to work.David was exceptional and honest. He properly diagnosed the problem with my BMW that, as it turned out, iDrive had mis-reported. It was the brake pad wear sensors and not the brake pads or even the rotors them selves! David fixed the issue quickly and competently. I did not find out until after that David was Audi, BMW and VW trained and certified! That just makes him all the more awesome! To sum up: David blew me away with his hoensty, professionalism, and work ethic and that is why I will come back to YourMechanic.com for my future repair and service needs!
