ps - ive been googling for an hour or so and not found any info that helps ;(

 

Dunno if it helps any, but I've read that it's wired as On-On (up-down) rather than On-Off. Planning to fit different style switches at some point. Sure I came across this on one of the American forums, and it was in regards to wiring in retro toggle switches for the hazards and headlight pop-up switches.

Following this thread as wiring diagrams would definitely be useful!

 

Yes it looks like someone has retro fitted this unit to the OEM wiring as the wiring to the relay isnt oem and has been added at some point after manufacture (I think)

 

Still need help with this please

 

This is the bloody relay I need help wiring back in....looks to go to some more relays near the wiper assembly.

Not sure if its aftermarket or not?

it was in the cabin but pulled out by mistake and cant work out wiring it back up

HELP !!!!!!!!

Please

 

Goes to this bundle of wires - could it be something to do with flash to pass mod?

headlights dont come up automatically at the moment...

only manual (button in centre of dash)

cheers

That appears to be the same headlight relay as fitted to my '94 1.8. What year of car are you fitting it into?

I had mine out recently as my headlights didn't always pop up on the stalk control (but did on the console button). I changed the little relay inside that unit and it all works fine again.

So anyway, if I can find the wiring colours from my car, is that likely to match yours?

 

Connector on the bottom has 6 pins in two rows;

R/Y XX XX R/L
W/R R/W B W/B

Where R = red, Y = yellow, L = Blue, W = white B = Black, XX = blank.

B = ground
R/L = power in from HEAD fuse
W/B = wire from stalk control
W/R = power out to console switch
R/Y = power out to popup actuators
R/W = (flash to popup?) wire from main beam headlights

Those are actually Miata wire colours. I'll cross check with Roadster colours but it may take me a while to decode the Japanese.

Anyway, I hope it helps a bit.

<edit> Checked. 1.8 Roadster diagram has the same wire colours.

 

Mine is 1990 year 1600.
I will check those out. Thanks martin

 

hey so I got toyota popups also with 5 wires, but I'd like to wire my popups to a switch like in miatas. you have a wiring diagram?
