[quote][i]Originally posted by Haimsey[/i] [b]Tutorial on how to fit Omega variable speed wiper stalk[/b] Remove the cowling from around the steering column (3 screws underneath and 2 behind the steering wheel) and remove the corsa wiper stalk. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04537_Large.JPG[/img] Looking at the back of the wiper stalk, you need to locate the positive wire. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04538_Large.JPG[/img] To do this, pop the wiper stalk onto the intermittent wiper setting and turn the ignition on. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04539_Large.JPG[/img] this wire will be the yellow/black one - far left in the below picture [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04540_Large.JPG[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04541_Large.JPG[/img] Then get the Omega wiper stalk. There are various ones of these. Omega saloon - front wipe, no rear wipe [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04542_Large.JPG[/img] Omega estate - front wipe, rear wipe Some Omega's (V6 i think) come with the computer screens which can be set from the wiper stalk [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04587_Large.JPG[/img] The wiper stalk has an additional plug on it with wires going into it and out the other side. From this you need the yellow/black and black/white wires (the V6 one has more wires on it than the one i used, but locating the y/b and b/w wires the same will be fine) Strip these two wires down so they can be soldered in [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04545_Large.JPG[/img] The positive wire in the Corsa plug (yellow/black wire located above) needs to be cut to allow the omega wires to be soldered in, making a circuit. [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04547_Large.JPG[/img] Tidy it all up [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04552_Large.JPG[/img] Refit it [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04554_Large.JPG[/img] Next, you also need the relay out of the Omega. This is located in the fuse box under the bonnet on the Omega, its bright yellow (90494187) Corsa wiper relay location [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04536_Large.JPG[/img] Corsa relay (black) Omega relay (yellow) [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04548_Large.JPG[/img] [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04549_Large.JPG[/img] Omega relay in place [img]http://www.corsasport.co.uk/carimages/8352/DSC04557_Large.JPG[/img] Job done. This now allows for the intermittent wipers to be changed to run from intervals of 3.9 seconds to 12.5 seconds. Haimsey :) [Edited on 17-10-2009 by Haimsey] [/quote]
