Wipers

[Guest John Church]

I've been messing around with a test lamp and the wiper wiring and from diagrams on this site and other threads that I've followed I've identified that the wiper wiring is as follows;

 

Black Violet Positive

Brown Earth

Brown White Park

Red Fast

Green Slow

 

Then we come to attaching them to the column switches which is a new one from RH (possibly Fiesta).

 

(I've managed to hook up the washer which works fine when the stalk button is pressed ).

 

Where do the wires go to in the column switch ????

Just a little more information....

 

The plug on the column stalks has 11 pins on it - some are obviously for the old rear wiper stuff, but which is which?

John, i,m trying to do this at the moment. You say you have the fiesta switch, do you have the autosparks wiring loom?

AUTOSPARKS COLOURS SIERRA COLOURS

fiesta column switch W1 light green/black washer switch to pump

W4 brown/light green red

W5 blue/light green green

W8 red/light green brown/white

W10 green black or black/purple

 

This is what my paperwork said but if yours catches fire let me know Graham

Sorry they all got jumbled up when I sent mail SIERRA COLOURS ARE W1 WASHERS? ; W4 RED; W5 GREEN W8 BROWN/WHITE; W10 BLACK OR BLACK/PURPLE

We're getting somewhere.

 

I never had any paperwork! So this is real news.

 

What are the W references that you use?

 

The plug just has lots (11 ish) prongs on it. Which W is which W?

Having spent much time trying to work out what wire goes where, I

finally came up with a solution that (like everyone else's) seems unique to my

2B.

 

So if you have a Sierra wiper motor and an Autosparks loom, then this

may help you.

 

But I still can't work out how to park the wipers - but other members at Newark said that they had the same problem too.
