Hi everyone,
I'm no good in finding these things...
can anyone help with the colour codes in the connector for the windscreen wipers?

Black/red (+yellow markings)
Braun
Black/white (+yellow markings)
Braun/green (+yellow markings) (0.75mm or 0.5mm)

I suppose one would be ground, 1 live (to be able to park the wipers) and 2 speeds(??)
Why 1 smaller cable. And which is which?

I suppose it is possible to find a wiring diagram somewhere?

It does give an indication...but no confirmation...
The drawing is for an E28-5serie, so normal that there can be a small difference
Mine:
Braun 1.5mm
black&red 1.5mm
black&white 1.5mm
green/braun 0.75mm

The drawing states:
Braun 1.5mm --> earth --> logical
Black&White 1.5 mm --> fast
Black&red 0.75 mm --> park --> normal for a 0.75mm, but in the zed, the 0.75mm has a different colour and the black&red is 1.5mm, not 0.75mm
black&Yellow 1.5mm --> slow

Think I will connect the correct sizes correctly and see what it does.
When the earth is correctly connected, I can't do much wrong.

Regards, Koen

You got the seats in yet?
Had 1 in. But removed for now as it's easier to work on the interior of the car without the seats in...wiring, seatbelts, pedals, dash, heating, etc...now wash&wipers...
Looking at it from the side, it looks as nothing has been done...but it's all in the preparation.
