The Haynes Porsche 924 Repair Manual has detailed wiring diagrams for your car. If you don't have one I suggest you get one off of eBay. They list plenty these for less than $20. |

Joec - Thanks for posting the pics on this fix. This was the only thing (currently) which was not working on my 88 SE. After 15 minutes work, the washers are now working perfectly - - thanks again! |
