There should be at least 5 pins on a 4-way switch.

Moving it any direction should make continuity between a common pin and the pin for that direction.

Or it could switch the polarity of a pair of pins for up/down and left/right.

Either way you need a continuity meter or ohm meter to check it.


I'm replying to CC as frankly, I never have a clue what pappyfreebird is saying. I don't know if it is a mental disability or an attempt at humor, but I'm sure he'd get many more responses and would not be talking to himself in many of his posts if he would post in English or if unable, have someone else (perhaps a young child from the neiborhood that would enjoy getting involved in Corvettes) post for him in English. I saw the words "mirror" and "switch" in pappyfreebird's post and from CC's description I suspect this may help:

This is from the '86 manual. The '84 manual has an error in the switch wiring, so I posted this as it is the same as the '84.

As CC suggested, 5 wires and a polarity switch between a pair of contacts.
