On the Porsche 914 the original windshield washer is operated by compressed air supplied from the Spare tire.
Here is the switch that replaces the original valve in the steering column. With this switch installed, an electrical washer pump can be operated with the wiper switch. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/carmagic.us-12404-1531682421.1.jpg) I got some requests if it would be possible to have a complete kit available. So I put together a complete kit, and also have now options. It's not yet on the website, however here is the information with the options and prices. Option 1: Switch only - $15.00 PLUS $5 s/h Option 2: Relay kit only - $35.00 plus $6 s/h Option 3: Switch and relay kit - $50.00 plus $6 s/h Option 4: Option 3 plus pump - $72.00 plus $8 s/h The switch is pre-wired and includes the mounting plate and some washer for adjustment if needed. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-12404-1623100568.1.jpg) The relay kit includes all wires, a fuse, and connectors, shrink tubing, bolt to mount the relay, as well the disc for the filler cap. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/live.staticflickr.com-12404-1623100568.2.jpg) Here is the wire diagram which will also be included in the step by step instructions. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/c2.staticflickr.com-12404-1549839863.1.jpg) The switch can be ordered at http://carmagic.us/washer.html Cheers Engelbert |

Ok, here is my recommended wire diagram for the washer switch installation. However, there are other ways to wire the switch. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/c2.staticflickr.com-12404-1549839863.1.jpg) Hope this will help. Thanks Engelbert since several other members are dealing with this issue again , i am bringing it up again to ask if this relay will work? only difference i see is it has a 87 & 87b. that and the 85&86 are unopposed positions.

This is basically a Bosch type relay. 87a is normal activated. 87 is activated when the coil is energized. So 87a is not used. |
