Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don't alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions. <br /> I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages. Don't enter into discussion on the WIKI, that is for the forum, try and keep the information here as definative an concise as possible. '''''The WIKI is for answers not questions.''''' If you need clarification then try and contact the poster directly or start a new thread on the [http://www.club80-90.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=2| technical forum.]<br /> <br /> ==Club 80-90 Wiki en Français==<br /> [[French language pages|French Language pages]]<br /> <br /> ==Notices and Bugs==<br /> '''PLEASE READ THE''' [[Disclaimer|'''Disclaimer:''']]<br /> <br /> *Club 80-90 members are the only ones with editing rights at the moment, we have not been able to automatically grant 80-90 logons with wiki editing rights these need to be manually added Please PM Mocki for access.

Horace83: Early vans, non-blade fuses'''<br /> <br /> '''Fitting Intermittent wipers to an early T25'''<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Image: inter_wipe_6.jpg]]<br /> <br /> One thing that annoyed me on my camper was the lack of an intermittent wiper option, especially when it was spitting. [http://www.peterkay.co.uk/ | (Everybody in. It's spitting!!!!)]<br /> <br /> I could only put the wipers on continuous and I discovered that in their wisdom VW rarely fitted the option on early vans<br /> and even ommited them from later vans even though they installed the wiring.<br /> <br /> Here's a guide on how to fit the option to an early T25 (mine is a 1983 model with ceramic fuses).<br /> There is a guide to the easier method of installing it to later ''blade fuse'' models [http://www.keithandsylvia.co.uk/tech%20pages/t25_intermittent_wipers.htm For vehicles with blade fuses See:]<br /> First job is to get down to the scrapyard and pick up relay number 321 955 531A (as in above picture). These can be found on<br /> most 1982-90 VW's, they also have a big 19 stamped on them. I got 3 from my local scrapyard for £5.<br /> <br /> '''IMPORTANT''' &lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt; Disconnect the battery before commencing and use properly insulated crimped connectors and solder&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> Remove the plastic steering column surround by removing the two retaining screws underneath.&lt;p&gt;<br /> <br /> Then remove the white retaining clip as shown in the next three pictuers. This will now give you a third intermittent down position on your wiper switch arm.&lt;br&gt;<br /> [[Image:inter_wipe_1.jpg]]<br /> <br /> [[Image:inter_wipe_2.jpg]]<br /> <br /> [[Image:inter_wipers.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> Right now for the wiring. I consulted the Bentley wiring diagram (fig. 4) which shows the relay as it should be incorporated in the system. Being lazy I couldn't be bothered to wire the relay up so it fitted in the relay fuse box so i wired it up next to the wiper switch on the steering column.&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Image:inter_wipe_8.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> After removing the wiper switch harness (figs. 5 &amp; 6) I noticed that the terminals were marked like the above diagram.&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Image:inter_wipe_3.jpg|frame|left]]<br /> [[Image:inter_wipe_4.jpg|frame|left]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> And from that I came up with the following diagram of what I was going to do. (fig 7)&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:inter_wipe_9.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> '''NOTE:''' Position J in the indicator switch has no connector or wire to it so you need to create one. The easiest way is to purchase a 1/8&quot; female lucar connector as shown below. This when crimped will push into the switch plug and lock in place. Feed your wire through position J (the way it would be if it were being connected to the indicator switch), crimp the wire to the lucar then push the lucar back into the J position in the switch connector block&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:lucar.jpg]] 1/8&quot; female lucar connector&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> Fig. 8 shows the relay wired up. Now all I had to do then is secure it to the steering column and replace the steering column cover (figs 9 and 10)&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:inter_wipe_5.jpg]] [[Image:inter_wipe_10.jpg]] [[Image:inter_wipe_7.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> Reconnect the battery and you will now have intermittent wipers that will also wipe 4 times when you activate the screen washer.

I consulted the Bentley wiring diagram (fig. 4) which shows the relay as it should be incorporated in the system.

The easiest way is to purchase a 1/8&quot; female lucar connector as shown below. This when crimped will push into the switch plug and lock in place. Feed your wire through position J (the way it would be if it were being connected to the indicator switch), crimp the wire to the lucar then push the lucar back into the J position in the switch connector block&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:lucar.jpg]] 1/8&quot; female lucar connector&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> Fig. 8 shows the relay wired up. Now all I had to do then is secure it to the steering column and replace the steering column cover (figs 9 and 10)&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:inter_wipe_5.jpg]] [[Image:inter_wipe_10.jpg]] [[Image:inter_wipe_7.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> Reconnect the battery and you will now have intermittent wipers that will also wipe 4 times when you activate the screen washer.

<p>Lloyd: No. 19 relay (part number 312-995-531A) is pre set intermittent relay. (out of old golf or whatever) from 80-90 members</p> <hr /> <div>== Introduction ==<br /> ''NB. There are three contributions to this subject, dependent upon your T25's wiring standard''<br /> <br /> == Late Van (Requires relay fitting only) ==<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Matt:'''<br /> Go to scrapyard; find vw; open glove box; pull out relay with No. 19 on it<br /> <br /> Put in fuse box into position 10 (remove metal insert)<br /> <br /> Remove plastic shrouds from steering column <br /> <br /> Take out white plastic plug <br /> &quot;voila&quot; intermittant wipers !!!<br /> <br /> [[Image: Inter_wipers.jpg]] [[Image: Wipers_2.jpg]] [[Image: Wipers_3.jpg]]<br /> <br /> <br /> Vans with wash/wipe but no intermittent wipers already have the relay, so just pull off the steering column cover and pull out the white gizmo from the switch, enabling your switch to move down a notch, and giving you intermittent wipers!<br /> <br /> <br /> info from 80-90 users guz &amp; rob: <br /> <br /> No. 19 relay (part number 312-995-531A) is pre set intermittent relay. (out of old golf or whatever)<br /> <br /> No. 99 relay (part number ???-???-???) is variable intermittent relay. (out of higher spec golf mk2 on and similar sized vw, relays fitted to Audi's don't work)<br /> <br /> If you use the no. 99 relay you can vary the time between wipes!<br /> <br /> To set intermittent wipe time, turn intermittent wipers on then off again. Count the seconds for the delay you want between wipes and turn back on again. The variable delay is now set.<br /> <br /> == Early Van (non-Blade style fuses) ==<br /> <br /> [http://www.keithandsylvia.co.uk/tech%20pages/t25_intermittent_wipers.htm '''2.
