Rear Wiper Upgrade - Wiring
My old 90 rear wiper motor (AMR1054) has finally packed up so i bought a new 'upgraded' motor (AMR 3676) for a fraction of the cost of a new replacement (£180-400 someones having a laugh...)

Little did I realise the wiring is complete different. The wiper on/off is a toggle switch so no wiper park, which is fine, but the wiring i have is:

Loom:
Black
Green
Red / Green
Green / Brown - (redundant park?)

Motor:
Yellow
White
Green
Brown

Is there a bright spark who can advise on what connects to what?

I'm in the middle of solving a similar problem, having fitted a late rear door to my '92 90. It's really not straightforward as the later setup has a relay mounted on the door to carry out some of the switching and the switch itself on the original vehicle isn't the simple on/off affair of earlier vehicles.

I haven't sat down and worked out the details of how I'm going to do mine yet but I did find the page below that gives a pretty detailed write-up of the task:

I hope that helps. If not, I hope to take a look at mine at the weekend and so will report back. Darren

thanks - i found that link over the weekend and read it numerous times - if the answers there i cant see it let alone understand it lol - especially as the wiring colours on the motor are different again from the TD5.

I know what you mean. I've now got copies of the original and later wiring diagrams so that I can work through them and come up with my own solution. I specifically don't want to alter the wiring loom on the door so want tor work out what I need to provide from the vehicle to make it work. Darren
