Tools for the job Cross head screwdriver, Electrical screwdriver, Small jewellers screwdriver (flat blade), Spade connector crimps, Solder iron (optional), Wire snips (cutters)

How ‐to In the car You now need to remove the cowling around the steering column, 3x screws under the lower section 2x screws from upper section"1 on each side of the wheel behind the black covers.



Then The stalk



2x retaining clips above and below the unit Unplug the unit by releasing the retaining clip

Next is the fuse box



3x screws in the top of the unit above the hinge point, Followed by the lower clip. Pull the fuse box out and release the rear cage retaining clips at the top (1 each corner)



The mod Feed the new loom up (black/red and black/yellow wires) from the fuse box to the rear of the stalk plug, Feed the other part of the new loom (black/violet, blue, green wires) through the hole in the fuse box from the rear.

Run the final brown wire to a good earth point and secure it,



Above earth point is at the bottom of the dash behind the kick panel (driver’s side) Place the VW relay it the rear of the fuse box and replace the rear cage then replace the fuse box.



The connections are next, On the stalk plug you will see a yellow clip using a small flat screwdriver remove it,

From the front of the plug using a small flat jeweler’s screwdriver insert in the small above the black/red wire connector, this is to release the pin retaining clip



,

gently pull the wire from its location,



Connect the new red/black wire to this wire (personally I used solder) but you may use "scotch locks" if using the later you don’t need to remove the black/red wire from the plug like above.

Then the black/yellow wire needs to be removed, using the above method, This wire needs to be folded over and insulated

Then connect the new black/yellow wire in its place after lifting the retaining clip slightly



Replace the yellow retaining clip The stalk can now be plugged back in and replaced Along with the column cowling. Back to the fuse box, Remove the wiper relay and place the 3 new wires in its place



Replace all removed items Turn on ignition and test To change the timing of the intermittent wipe 1st nudge the stalk (not on just to make it wipe once) 2nd wait until you need screen wiping again then switch stalk to first position(intermit wipe) the timer is now set to that time e.g. nudge stalk 1st wipe wait 18 seconds 2nd wipe switch on to intermittent wipe,the next automatic wipe will be in 18 seconds Good luck and happy modding
