Removing Rear Wash Wipe Question.

[Merlin 2]

Hi all

I have just removed the rear wash wipe from my MCS and want to isolate the wire in the stalk that sets the rear washer working, so that should I inadvertantly try to use the rear washer the washer motor doesnt try to push the water to the back of the car.

What I need to know is which wire is it from the back of the wiper stalk that is the one for the rear washer motor so that I can remove it from the wiring block (colour and pin number please)

bump!

The wire that controls the rear washer pump is :-

Signal WW_R
0.35mm²
Colour SW/BL/GE (Black/Blue/Yellow)
Connector X10692
Pinout cavity 5

So if you disconnect the above wire @ the connector that goes into the stalk it should stop the rear window wash pump.

OK, curiosity has got the better of me. Why are you removing your rear wash wipe? Is it a track car for which weight is critical?

[Damo]

Claner look at the back, and weight saving....but its a while off for me, as going to do it properly (rear seats delete etc)

[monkeynuts]

Did this a couple of years ago (i thnk) on my old black s





Nothing to do with weight saving .... just looks

yep, that does look good, i wish it was simpler to remove the rear badge, but with the bloody holes needed to be filled its an expensive exercise.

Does lok good though.

However not sure i could live without a rear wiper when it starts to rain, spray is a rel problem on the Mini

O.K. guys I know this is a long time ago but just got round totrying the wireing and it was spot on - black, blue, yellow wire in pin 5 of the wiper stalk - just removed the wire from the block put everything back togeather and now no motor sound when you turn the stalk for the rear wash - fantastic, another mod finished.

[M.O.S]

I would have left the wiper on - you'll regret it in the winter - the back of minis is a magnet for dirt!!! Still, I'm sure it'll look good - and especially different.
