headlight washers/wipers

Post by Sien »

Yesterday i've found headlight wipers at a scrapyard. I thought my 340 had al the wiring but, sadly, that's not true.

My questions is whether anyone of you guys has an installation guide or if there's someone who can explain it to me.

Thanks already,

Rik

Good man! Quick work. Aymat wouldn't bother with the bottles of Duvel Mick, he'd nip down the pub to get it on tap!

The mechanical part isn't very difficult: just remove the bumper and unscrew your headlights, turn them 180 degrees and you can install the parts. Don't forget to install the hoses for the washfluid before you put back the bumper.

The electrical part of the installation goes as in following schedule:

The big black line are the cables that are already in the car. This means the cables that already lead to the fluidpump. The black cable must be installed in the fusebox (upper left place in the big white connector).

I've removed the washer pipes, and motors from a car before, but it's a completely different game installing them into a car without the wiring! It'll be a handy guide to our friends upping the spec on their cars abroad.
