Default Switch on back of wiper stalk 2019 ES 350 Luxury

I just found a 4 position swithc on the back of the wiper control stalk. Owners Man says nothing about it. And I can't tell that is does anything. Any ideas as to its purpose?

That should be the intermittent wiper speed I believe.

You are right. Just got the car and have only adjusted via the front switch didn't notice that it is adjustable from either side of stalk I feel so useless LOL

It is a weird design. The button on the front and the back are connected together. Using both at once makes it a bit easier to control than using either the front or back by themselves.

For Intermittent setting, it adjusts the time between swipes.

For Rain Sensing feature, it controls the sensitivity of the windshield water detector.
