Gunny Grunwald Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I'm trying to install the wiring, relays etc. for a heated windscreen on my Discovery 300 Tdi. I've bought a Heated Front Screen Timer (PRC 6796), the dash switch (AMR 5177), connector plugs etc. necessary but haven't got a clue as to how to wire it all together. The dash switch has 5 connectors, Numbered 1-5, and the timer Relay has five spade connectors numbered, 2,4,5,6 & 8. The screen has two water-proof "socket" connector blocks, one at each bottom corner. Each of which has a live and earth lead. (I fitted 4 x Auxillary Lights to the Safety Devices Roof-rack with no problems and installed the relays into an IP54 junction box because I was fed up with having to replace the Fog and Driving lamp relays due to corrosion. These were originally fitted on the inner wing but are now tucked-up safe with the other relays in the IP54 box.) Could someone please help me with a diagram that an idiot could understand?

I'll try e-bay. I did try down loading the RAVE CD's from "Green-Oval.com" website but you have to download the image rather than the files(?). After several hours of trying I gave up last night. I'll let you know how I get on. Cheers, Gunny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just download the image files, then download Daemon Tools Virtual CD Emulator: http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/download.p...ory&catid=5 Then use that to mount the images, they will then appear as CD's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

streaky Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I'm surprised the wiring isn't already there in the loom. I have a GULF Spec Disco that doesn't have heated windscreen but all the wiring is in place ready to accept one. I used the power supply to power up my 4 roof mounted driving lights instead.

lynall Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Depends how old car is early 300 had what they came with full stop, later 300 had most of the wiring in place for everything about 96ish onwards. Lynall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
