Rear wiper question

Post by JohnS »

My '73 911T is fitted with a rear wiper (original spec I think). A couple of queations.
1. Where is the right place for the on off switch. I have two extra holes in the dash - both to the left of the steering wheel (its R/H drive). one is in the dash facing to the rear of the car; the other is a hole which faces down similar to the sun roof control button.
2. Help needed with the wiring. I have a red, red black, brown/white and brown(earth). Plus an extra grey (the other grey feeds the number plate light. With the ignition on the red and red/black have 12v. Nothing from the brown/white or grey. Any ideas please
Thanks
John

Check a wiring diagram for the correct wiring

I probably have a spare set up if needed? I am sure I have both a LHD drive and RHD rod set up and the wiring.
