We have calculated exchange corrections for nuclear muon capture by {sup 3}He using the hard pion method for the currents and wavefunctions for {sup 3}He and {sup 3}H found by the coupled rearrangement channel method. The result for the rate (triton asymmetry) has an uncertainty of 3% (1%) due mainly to the uncertainty in the value of {ital f}{sub {pi}{ital N}{Delta}} (various factors). {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital American} {ital Institute} {ital of} {ital Physics}.
