Dear Mr. Gill:#I am writing to confirm your telephone conversation o August 4, 1975, with Mark Schwimmer concerning the applicability of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 101, *Control Location, Identification and Illumination*, to an intermittent-operation windshield wiper switch.#Your letter of June 4, 1975, described such an intermittent operation switch which is distinct from the normal windshield wiper switch. As Mr. Schwimmer explained, Standard No. 101 required neither illumination nor any particular location for this intermittent switch, because the normal switch is already subject to all of the standard's requirements.#Sincerely, Frank A. Berndt, Acting Chief Counsel;
