Wire colors used in this vehicle:
+12V - YEL
GROUND - BLK
FAST - YEL
SLOW - BLU
Special Rain Tracker Installation Notes for this vehicle:
This is a ground side switching system.The switch sends a digital signal to the
relay module, so fast and slow wiper motor windings are NOT available at the switch.
Ground and +12V are available from the switch. Connect to SLOW and FAST wiper motor
windings in the engine compartment. You will need to extend the Rain Tracker wiring
harness.
This is a harder Rain Tracker installation than most, because some of the wires are
not available in the passenger compartment.
Write the wire colors of the vehicle on the GSS drawing, and follow that
when you wire up the Rain Tracker. Use the factory drawing as a reference
to help you find the wires.
DETAILED NOTES ON RT-50 INSTALLATION:
Access the lower driver knee bolster by taking out (1)Philips screw at the
lower outside bottom edge of the panel, then unsnap the panel. Unsnap lower
knee bolster foot panel. Plenty of room to mount the RT-50 above the
fuse/plug panels. Ignition is a 12 gauge White/Red wire accessible above
the fuse panel. Extend RT-50 wires and fish through the main body harness
to the left of the steering column. The wiper wires are 14/16 gauge blue
and 14/16 gauge yellow and are easily obtained where they enter the cowl
panel behind the driver side shock tower.
