Ok, so I'm mocking up what I have for this assembly and referencing Andy's write up
I have a few questions and I'll post a few pics. First, when I pulled out the filler tube, it basically crumbled on me. All I have at the moment are zip ties, but here's my modification. I suppose by the time I power it up, if it leaks I can get a better hose clamp. By bypassing the spare tire connection, I can run this tubing right to the pump itself. Can I mount my pump in this area? I have a new Bosch relay p/n # 0 332 019 150-010. It looks like it would go here. No clue on how to wire to it yet. |

I'm not familiar with the pink/black wire. Maybe it runs the wipers when you pull the washer stalk? The water switch is the black appendage shown in the top of the pic. This is where people mount a microswitch or the 944 switch.

I'm not familiar with the pink/black wire. Maybe it runs the wipers when you pull the washer stalk? Intermittent wiper function. Replace the valve with a switch and you can have both. nope thats not it, the pink/black stripe wire is for a washer pump, the brown wire runs the 3 stroke wipe, the delay is from another wire.. I have had a volt meter w/ light on the wires, when the stalk is pulled back the pinkwire/black stripe and the brown wire both get powered when the stalk is puylled back. thus giving you liquid on your wqindshield from the pump and the 3 stroke to wipe it off simutainuosly. you do not need to replace the valve with any switch (the "switch" is to your washer pump from the pink black wire whihc gets electrical contact from the same switch that makles the mechanical valve switch work.. .. nor do you need to remove it for any other reason than having difficulties mounting the switch in column i left mine on and no worries. you could reverse the brown wire and the pink black stripe wires but one of each still needs to go to their location (1 to the wiper harness and the other to the pump) how many wires are in the switch pictured vs. the one that came with your 914 from the factory? you will see there is 1 extra wire now the pink black stripe one. probably to save money making the same switch with different layouts they now made on with different options.. they could sell them better and have wider need for the same swtich. so use the black plastic valve or use the wire.. put it ina newer porsche or put it in an old bus.. |
