At a guess are the middle 2 the +ve and -ve for illumination and the outer 2 the +ve and -ve for the switch

Earth connection at the side for internal light
pin 9 on the westsfielt one is often connected interanally to the internal light so may be missing on your type of switch
that leaves the other 4 pins.

ps Sorry about the typing but already on the beer.

The 2 small tabs either side of the switch are for the illumination, the others are 12v feed, speed1, speed2 and park ( the park becomes live/links to
the 12v feed terminal when the switch is turned off)
if you can use a multi meter its easy to work out

Finally Grusks answered without guessing which doesnt really help. As said, the terminals are live, speed 1, speed 2 and park. Your loom should will
generally have 5 wires going to the wiper motor - the 4 above plus an earth.
Built too many aeroscreened cars to remember the colour codes now but light green is generally the live feed to the switch / wiper motor.

using a multi meter
put the switch to the off position - (2 of the terminals should be connected)
put the switch on speed 1 ( one of the terminals from the above test and a spare terminal should now be connected )
put the switch on speed 2 ( the same terminal from first test should be connected to the last spare terminal )
hope this makes sence.
if a remember right
pin 1 is live
pin 2 is speed 1
pin 3 is missing
pin 4 is speed 2
pin 5 is park wire
