Wiring

[Cant Get Right]

Ok decided to delve further into the mysterious non working rear window, that i state was working perfect before it brokeded. Anyway if anyone can tell me why/what and whatever else all the wires here are all about.
This was my centre consol, a few loose bare wires

This is my switch, a load o wires and some kind of fuse/relay (that had Ford writen on them) or whatever u call them, plus a blown 20 amp fuse that was connected to these wires.

Nope, no-one,nothing,nilto, oh come on, at least show me how to re-wire a new switch for the bleeding thing

[surfenstein]

have you tried wiggling the rear wiper?????

Yup, read all about that Mark, Took rear panneling off looking for broken wires etc, only broken wire was from the key switch on the rear which i sorted. All that happens is a click when i turn the key now, no movement in the window or motor. From the front there was a bust 20amp fuse, all those wires, i started following all those wires and ended up in my centre consol with a few bare wires, hence the reason i think the fuse blew. on the centre consol there are two fog light switches that aint even workin so am well lost, its too much for me, ad rather take it all out and do it again

Was the knacked fuse actually in the footwell fuse box or was it an external addition?

This was all in the drivers footwell matt, it had been added when the spaghetti junction was put in Probably.

But where is the blown fuse located specifically? In the fusebox behind the kickpanel in the footwell, or is the fuseholder an inline type which has been added for something else?

Have you checked the control unit for the rear window?

It looks as though the pcb in the rear( the one you paradoxically can't get to if the window won't lower) has been bypassed. Seen this before. It's a bit dodgy chris, cos the motor effort tries to keep the window going till you bust it. Best thing , according to some on here is set fire to it....

The blown fuse is located, drivers side behind kickpannel. not in the fusebox, its been an inline one thats been added.

We went to GlenTarkie the other weekend, cracking place so it was. Missed a cracking laugh. Had boys down from up north or summit, 3 or 4 hours away, they loved it, then they came to drumclog last weekend too, well keen. Need to get you out and play again soon

Ok went back out to it today, found a broken wire and touched it to another wire, i hear a clicking in the back now, but only when i first touch the two wires, try the switch and nothing, nilt hee haw not even a click???? suggestions.

Sod the front end wiring and get stuck into the back. Check everything in that area is working as it should and then backtrace from there.

Ok so what i need is a tester? i dont have one But back to the front wires again, when they are touched together the rear wiper doesnt work. could it possibly be the relay thats gubbed then. Matt u know me, unless its spelt out in Chris terms, am flaming lost. how do a test the motor, i read that u can touch it straight to the battery. how does this work out. God i bet this sites missed me
