I have a wiperless hatch on my s4 and i wish to put a wiper hatch on it.

ok i need to know where the location of the connector for the rear wipers sub-harness.....ive looked in the FSM and all it shows is where the rear wiper motor connector is supossed to be but not where the wire goes to. if someone could please help me out, im so lost and the FSM is not helping. is there something im mising? perhaps some pictures would help?

thank you

which connector are you asking about?

The drivers side lifter normally has the wiring for the rear wiper motor. It plugs into the harness on the drivers side B/C pillar.

thats what i cant find the connector in the car, its not on the harness....wich leads me to assume that there is a sub harness that my car lacks

ive looked over the FSM but it showes no good picture nore does it say anything about wiring, it just shows that the connector is suposed to be taped together with the defrost on the drivers side. but theres no extra connectors anywhere near the defroster.

as with the rear washer motor, i see a conector but it too is missing an extra strand of wiring so that it can actually reach the motor.

I no that my car is just a base model but seeing as i pulled open the doors to install power mirrors and found connectors for every single power accesory that would have ever come with the car all ready to go...i figured the rear wiper wiring should be there too.

if someone that has their car apart would be so kind as to locate theirs and maybe shine a little light on this matter it would be very helpfull to me.
the connector for the wiper is supposed to be a female yellow connector with two wires, i beleive they are yellow, and black but im not quite sure.

and if someone also has these wires uncut on hand with no use for them i would glady buy them from them, with a fully functional switch.

Behind the seats there is a wall about one foot tall, on top of the wall right behind the driver side seat and nearer the window there lies a white plug with two wires I believe and it is connected to "nothing" at all but just sits there. This might be what you are looking for though if so you would need to run wires from it towards the back as needed.

hey satch, do you think you could take a picture of the wall? or are you talking about behind the plastic frame for the storage bins?

Try looking for the plug as mentioned in the PM first then look at the spot mentioned in this thread second. Yes,the top of the wall would be underneath the plastic bin but if it is there it might be accessible by just pulling up the carpeting off of the wall which would require poppping the plastic rounded tabs to pull up the carpet.

no plug anywhere in sight...unless its hidden somewhere then i must not have it.....and i went crazy i basicaly gutted the whole back all the way to the front seats....nothing


if anyone can shine a little more light before i run my own wires i would gladly take the info

thanks

yea no problem, if whoever doesnt mind though i could use everything...like all the wires the fully functional switch, all the washer stuff and wires....my switch is fully functional...the only issue is that i accidentally broke the fake button when removing it during an inspection...but i still have the button...and the hatch is in good condition
