Not sure if I have heated mirrors, they're electric, so I thought that they would be and just worked off the heated windscreen, but that sounds wrong now :?

Your wiper setup sounds really cool 8) , so would defo like to do that if I do go with it :)

Not sure about the switch though, the Focus rear wash/wipe ones on the Bay look exactly like mine :?

only thing that puts me off is I'm still not sure if it's worth the 2 hundred smackers plus a massive round trip to collect :?
Nah sack that mate just hang on til you see 1, sods law you'll do all that to get 1 and the next day there's 1 down the road for 100 quid Lol.

The cmax switch is the same but it pulls back for rear wipers 8)
You'll have the switch wiring already and the heated mirrors wiring so just need a switch for it.
Only the relay to A pillar connector needs wiring up and software.

Bear in mind that you have to confirm what wiring you actually have since this is Ford we are talking about :lol:

You hit the nail on the head there Mate, story of my life. So gonna do it but hang on like you say, will start getting the switches and wiring sorted ready though :D

Cool thanks. I'm waiting on payment before I proceed as I don't want to be out of pocket

Loot Mate, when you get a minute, could you post I pic of R24 so I can make sure I get the right one from number :?:

I have socket with connectors so I think it's ready to fit. also checked the doors, and have the wiring going to the mirrors, so just need to extend to back.

Loom hanging in back door has 2 connectors though with just one contact in each, one with black wire, one with purple, could they be heated screen wires :?:

In the main glovebox fusebox the lowest row there is 5 relays, 24 is the middle 1 :-)
Transit mk7 with lift gate heated glass wiring is brown/white and black/green.
1.5mm wire so a lot thicker than the other wires.

We need to work out yours a bit, are you using a mk6 gate? Possibly different wire colours and opposite side.
Did the lift gate come with wires inside?

Your van originally doors?

We need to work out yours a bit, are you using a mk6 gate? Looks like it in the picture, but haven't bought it yet. Really cheap but 4 days to go :? Just getting b its togetherPossibly different wire colours and opposite side.
Did the lift gate come with wires inside?Wiper and brake light have been removed so they may have taken loom out too

Your van originally doors? No mine is solid tailgate (ex RAC and new one is from RAC I think, but probably Mk6
:-)

There are some relays on the bay, but just not sure if they're correct without some kind of id number, hope all that makes sense Mate :?

See what you get when the gate arrives, worst case I'll guide you through it manually :-)

R24 is a 4 pin relay so any 30A relay with 4 legs should do.
Ford number is

Installing rear heated screen/wash wipe mk7

Postby loot » Mon Aug 17, 2015 10:23 pm

Tango330 wrote:Fitted my C-Max wiper switch ready for a rear screen when I get one. Found that the rear washer bit works my front washers and doesn't do the auto wipe as well which is quite handy sometimes :)

It's the same motor but the front spins the pump 1 way and rear spins it the other way i think, you got the double pump didn't you? I had to feed clear pipe from the washer pump to the back of the van to :-)

No Mate, haven't got the double pump yet, and didn't even think about it after I fitted switch(it was kicking about on floor getting in the way). Just caught the switch by accident and noticed a spurt of water so tried it :)

Oh, I didn't know this :/ I've fitted double pump so will have to check this, the auto wipe doesn't work on mine either, maybe once it's enabled in IDS?
As soon as I've installed windows xp/7 onto an old laptop I will plug in and activate the rear wiper

I was meaning auto wipe on front Mate, which I find quite annoying in dry weather if I'm trying to clear flies and sh1te, clears it off then smears it with that extra wipe. Might try and turn that off when I sort out the rear one :? Just found that at the mo, when I pull the lever back it works the front washer (presumably 'cause I've only got the single pump at the mo) :)

Shaun, you can't activate rear wash wipe in config you have to install modified software, took me bloody hours to find it too!

Hmm Jaffa cakes........

:mrgreen:

Tango
I'm not sure what you mean about wash wipe Lol.
Remind me about whether you have heated screen and auto lights/wipers? I know if you install them then your wiper stalk will work different, mine stays on 1 click up which used to be intermittent but is now dependant on rain hitting the sensor, it's ace :-)
Except randomly on a sunny day when I'm picking my nose and the wipers activate once and i sh*t myself :? :lol:
